How many square meters of space can you get for the average UK house price in YOUR area?

In Britain, we are more accustomed to measuring our houses by the number of bedrooms they have than by square footage; In fact, research suggests that three in five don’t know the size of their property in square footage.

But an in-depth study by Savills shows, with an average property price of £340,837, the huge differences in size across the country.

In London, that sum would typically buy you a studio and 551 sq ft, says the estate agency giant.

However, it would secure him a five-bedroom house in the north-east, covering 1,955 square metres, almost four times the size of London.

Meanwhile, in Scotland, the median house price would buy a large four-bedroom, 1,743 square foot home.

In Wales, Yorkshire and the Humber and the North West, this figure would be enough for a four-bedroom house of just over 1,500 sq ft, while it could be enough to afford a 1,300 sq ft house in the East and West Midlands.

At the other end of the spectrum, £340,837 would buy just 1,000 square feet in the south-west and 928 square feet in the east.

While homebuyers would have by far the least purchasing power in London, the second most expensive area is the South East, where the average would secure 825 square feet, or a medium-sized two-bedroom home.

Lucian Cook, head of residential research at Savills, said: “Exactly what an average of just £341,000 can buy you varies dramatically across Britain, from a small studio in central London to a large four or five-bedroom house. in parts of the north east of England.

‘This has important implications for who can buy where and, in turn, pressures on different housing types and tenures in different locations.

“It also determines the extent to which households have to stretch financially to meet their housing aspirations in the place they would like to call home.”

Square meters aren’t the only thing when it comes to buying a home, with a mixed housing stock, from extremely old properties to new builds.

Since three in five Brits don’t know the size of their homes in square feet, the number of bedrooms is a more traditional size indicator.

For example, a house you are looking to buy may have a huge kitchen, but if you don’t particularly like cooking, then there could be an alternative property that is set up in a way that better suits your needs.

However, if you’re looking to get the most square footage for your money, choosing Easington, County Durham would allow you to afford a 2,858 square foot, five-bedroom home.

The village is located 12 miles south of Sunderland.

Meanwhile, the £340,837 would normally secure 2,625 sq ft in Rhondda, Wales or 2,551 sq ft in Na h-Eileanan an Iar, in the Western Isles of Scotland.

On the other hand, in St Albans, Hertfordshire, you could get just 547 square feet, which is equivalent to a one-bedroom apartment.

The average would also see you buy less than 600 sq ft in Esher & Walton, Epping Forest and South West Hertfordshire.

Meanwhile, in central London, their purchasing power would be significantly reduced.

In Kensington, for example, you might only allow 220 square feet or 236 square feet in Westminster.

In Dagenham, on the other hand, your money would stretch to 770 square feet.
