With the scale version of the house I bet you can calculate the exact sq. footage. For me, having my tape measure in a model gardenia was the key to know if my 11.5' wall unit or my 7' dresser were going to fit!
good luck!
Did you ever find the right lot?

We had a similar problem when we were there looking in Feb. as well. We wasted about 3 hours driving around (in the rain) looking at lots. Our agent was on the phone with his assistant and than some other people to find out if the house we wanted would fit. No luck in finding the right lot. We will make sure things are better planned out next time we come looking.
