To attract families it may be a mistake to think big. The choice in life for
most people may be "family" _OR_ "big house", not both at the same time.
Families may be perceived as needing large spaces, but can rarely afford
them.

Perhaps "expandable" is a more useful concept. Unfinished second floors or
basements. Small bedrooms with built in loft beds for children.
