How do you measure room size in a house?

Just break out your measuring tape—or a laser measure—to get its length and width. Multiply the width by the length and voila! You have the square footage. Say a room is 20 feet wide by 13 feet long, then 20 x 13 = 260 square feet.

What size is a good size bedroom?

Allow an area of at least 8 by 8 feet in addition to your requirements for the beds, dressers and chests. You more likely will need an area that is 10 by 10 feet. A rectangular room that's 21 feet long and 14 feet wide will accommodate a bedroom with a king-size bed and a sitting area.

For a square or rectangular room, you will first need to measure the length and then the width of the room. Then multiply the length and width. Length x Width = Area. So, if your room measures 11 feet wide x 15 feet long, your total area will be 165 square feet.

Can a king bed fit in a 10x10 room?

At 76” x 80”, a king size bed is almost exactly the same size as two Twin XL beds placed side by side. A king bed will fit reasonably well in a 10' x 12' bedroom, although a 13' x 13' or larger room is recommended for an open, spacious feel after adding some furniture and accessories.

(<500 sq. feet), and homes of 1400, 1800, 2500 and 4700 square feet, in my opinion the optimal size for one (or two) people is probably a little more than 1,000 and less than 1,600 sq. feet.
