How it works

Property listings, gardens and building plans quote area in whatever unit is local — square metres in much of the world, square feet and acres elsewhere. This converter bridges them all.

It works through a common base: 1 square metre is about 10.76 square feet, 1 hectare is 10,000 m², and 1 acre is about 4,047 m² (roughly 0.405 hectares). So a 120 m² flat is about 1,292 sq ft.

Use it for real-estate comparisons, land and garden planning, flooring and tiling estimates, or making sense of plans drawn in another country’s units.

Frequently asked questions

How big is an acre in square metres?

About 4,047 m², or roughly 0.405 hectares. A football pitch is very roughly one to one-and-a-half acres, which helps picture it.

How do I convert square metres to square feet?

Multiply by 10.764. So 50 m² is about 538 sq ft. Note it is not the same factor as for plain length — area scales with the square.

Is it useful for land?

Yes, it is useful for property, land and construction measurements.
