It's not that bad. Especially if it's spread over two floors. I have a 2 bdrm town house that's under 700 Sq/ft. And about 30 of those feet are wasted on my patio (which I glare at longingly wishing it was part of my living room when ever the weather sucks too much to use it), at least 100 sq/feet of it is used up by stairs and storage giving me maybe 550 sq/feet of living space. It was HARD for me at first given my prior place was over 1600 sq/ft. but you definitely learn to adjust. I boggle at some of the people in my building who have couples + multiple kids in units the size of mine but I'm sure they adjust too.

Look at some of those IKEA lay outs. They get 2 bedrooms in under 300sq feet. I could easily live in some of their demo places and they're even half the size of my tiny place.
