I just bought my dream home. It's about 680 square feet (almost double if you add in the wall thickness). It needs a lot of work. It's ~220 years old.
It was 68,000 Euro and is near the train, on a few acres of loamy land, and has a few outbuildings I can use for woodworking, etc.
At that price I can treat it as a thing I use, and not some stupid investment. It's cheap enough that if I want to move I don't have to chain together mortgages, etc.
That's all I ever wanted in a home, really. Nobody seems to be building that now, aside from the tiny homes movement, and those are maybe a bit _too_ small (I have a kid).
