I live in a 5 Storey residential house, all levels are finished with high ceiling no less than 8'. Some ceilings are over 8'. There's one floor that is over 10'.
Anyways, Whoever lives in a 2 storey with around 2,500 square footage or even 3,000 is not that big in fact it's small compare to my home which is 6,000 sq ft.
I have 5 levels, finished top floor attic used for a living space with TV, Skylights and lots of sunshine's, My finished attic is measured to be 40' x 30' which is 1,200 square feet it's a huge attic, i seen some homes around 1,200. Second Level with Living Room with big hallway to 3 Bedrooms, Huge Kitchen & Full Bathroom. Huge Deck access from Second Level. Main Level has another 3 bedrooms with hallway + Living Room with Big Kitchen & 2 Full Bathrooms & also a Mudroom. Lower Level is a few steps down from Main Level with 500 square feet used for an extra use and used to be a Store there and then below this lower level is the Basement which is all finished 1,200 square footage with lots of windows which is considered the 5th because it's the lowest and used as a living space.
Also have an large attached garage in the lot and have access to house that is 900 square footage. So I have 6,000 square footage in my entire home plus 900 sqft in my Garage.
I live with big family but i seen lonely people stay in homes like 6,000 to 10,000 sqft. homes for pleasure and if you stay in a home with less than 1,000 sq.ft then that is no good, either expand the home's square footage by finishing your attic or basement or buy a bigger home.
I like to live in a large home then i like to live in a large city too,
I live in Windsor the best bustling city. Windsor has over 400,000 people plus it's by Detroit and both cities compared we have 5.5 million people.
Ontario has 13.5 million people as of 2014 and in 2016 it may be more since Syrians moved in Ontario in 2015.
So I had to sign up and tell everyone that living in a big home is not a disaster even if it needs some renovations or repair by an handyman, get it done or do it yourself don't complain or tell others to live in a small home just because you could not succeed.
Most people would be jealous and would tell others to avoid big homes and I just don't like small homes even I were alone. Thousands and Millions of People have enjoyed living in huge homes, If i see homes less than 5,000 square feet like 2,500 or 3,800 I won't live in it, Because the more larger it is the better.
Now some say old people can't live in these big homes, I get it but my home is the best designed because it has less stairs too even if it has over 4 levels. Each floor is no more than 6-8.
If old people can't walk on stairs at all, then my home has an option, the front entrance has no stairs from the exterior so old people can just walk in and enjoy and don't have to go upstairs and stay and sleep in the lower level where there used to be a store.
I like the entire world to be peaceful and understand the being perfect is not hard, staying in a perfect country, perfect home and city is not hard and don't listen to others by paying rent to landlords, landlords use the money to live in their dream home,
Save money yourself be rich and do something nice in your life before saying good-bye to this beautiful universe.
