Square meters to square feet
Floor plans, apartment listings and land descriptions use square meters in most of the world and square feet in the United States and, informally, in the UK, India and Canada. Because one foot is 0.3048 m, one square foot is 0.3048² = 0.092903 m², and therefore 1 m² = 10.7639 sq ft. To convert, multiply square meters by 10.7639.
Mental shortcut
Multiply by 10 and add about 8 %. A 50 m² flat is 500 + 40 = 540 sq ft (538 exactly). A 100 m² house is roughly 1 076 sq ft.
Reference values
- 1 m² = 10.76 sq ft
- 10 m² = 107.6 sq ft (a small bedroom)
- 20 m² = 215.3 sq ft
- 50 m² = 538.2 sq ft (a one-bedroom apartment)
- 100 m² = 1 076.4 sq ft
- 150 m² = 1 614.6 sq ft
- 200 m² = 2 152.8 sq ft
- 1000 m² = 10 763.9 sq ft (0.1 hectare)
Real estate
Property prices are compared per square meter in Europe and per square foot in the US. To convert a price, divide by 10.7639: €5 000 per m² is €465 per sq ft. Be aware that what counts as "floor area" differs between countries — some include balconies, garages or wall thickness, others do not — so compare like with like.
Flooring, paint and tiles
Tiles and laminate are sold by the square meter or the square foot, and packs are labelled with coverage. Convert the room area to the unit on the pack, then add 5–10 % for cuts and waste. Paint coverage is usually quoted per liter or per gallon in square meters or square feet respectively.
A common error
Converting the side lengths and forgetting to square: a 3 m × 4 m room is 12 m², which is 129 sq ft — not 3.28 × 4 = 13.1 of anything.
