Sq Ft to Sq M FAQ
Everything people ask about converting between square feet and square meters.
To convert square feet to square meters, multiply the area in square feet by 0.09290304. For example, 1,000 sq ft × 0.09290304 = 92.90 sq m. This factor comes from squaring the linear conversion of 1 foot = 0.3048 metres exactly.
To convert square meters to square feet, multiply the area in square metres by 10.7639104. For example, 100 sq m × 10.7639104 = 1,076.39 sq ft. This is the reciprocal of the square feet to square metres factor.
One foot is defined as exactly 0.3048 metres under the international yard and pound agreement of 1959. Since area scales with the square of length, 1 sq ft = 0.3048m × 0.3048m = 0.09290304 sq m exactly. This is a fixed, non-approximated conversion factor.
The foot itself is standardised internationally, so 1 square foot equals 0.09290304 square metres everywhere. However, how floor area is measured for real estate (carpet area, built-up area, super built-up area) varies by country, which is why two listings with the same square footage can represent different usable space.
One acre equals 43,560 square feet, which is approximately 4,046.86 square metres. One hectare equals 10,000 square metres, which is approximately 107,639.1 square feet, or roughly 2.471 acres.
A small bedroom is roughly 100 sq ft (9.3 sq m), a standard master bedroom is around 200 sq ft (18.6 sq m), a typical living room is about 300 sq ft (27.9 sq m), and a small studio apartment is around 400-500 sq ft (37-46 sq m).
It depends on the market: the US, UK (residential), Canada, and India commonly use square feet, while most of Europe, Australia, and Latin America use square metres. When comparing listings across countries, always convert to the same unit first — a 1,000 sq ft flat and a 90 sq m flat are nearly identical in size.
