Square Feet to Square Meters Converter

One square foot is exactly 0.09290304 square meters, because a foot is defined as 0.3048 meters and 0.3048 × 0.3048 = 0.09290304. To convert, multiply square feet by 0.09290304 (about 0.0929); to convert back, divide by the same number or multiply by 10.7639. The converter above uses the exact factor in both directions and rounds the result to four decimal places.

A 150 sq ft bedroom is about 13.9 m², a 400 sq ft studio about 37.2 m², a 1,000 sq ft apartment about 92.9 m², and a 2,000 sq ft house about 185.8 m². For a rough mental check, divide square feet by 10 and take off about 7% — 1,000 sq ft becomes 100, then about 93 m². Use the exact factor for anything that will be priced, ordered or built.

Square footage on a US listing for a single-family home is commonly measured to the outside of the exterior walls and counts finished, above-grade living space; garages are usually left out and basements are often listed separately. A metric plan from elsewhere may show net internal area measured inside the walls instead. Converting 1,500 sq ft to 139.4 m² gives the same area in different units, but it does not make the two figures measure the same thing — confirm the measurement basis before comparing.
