If you can stretch the budget slightly, the layout changes everything.

A wider landscape layout, an island kitchen, and a fully open visual flow can make the same square footage feel significantly bigger — without “wasted” space.

If you care about liveability, spatial efficiency, and how layouts actually feel day to day, this distinction matters more than most people realize.

It’s not about adding size — it’s about how intelligently the space is absorbed into the overall living area.
