(SPOT.ph) If you’re thinking of moving out and getting your own place, chances are, a studio unit in a good location is on top of your list of living options. The most affordable unit type in any condo development is a studio. It has a reputation of being teeny-tiny, often likened to a shoebox with limited space—but this has changed over the years.
While there are still studio units that measure 13 square meters, some developers are leveling it up by offering bigger unit cuts—perfect if you have a ton of belongings, like living with a pet, or would just want some extra floor space. Depending on how you want to personalize it, a studio can also be transformed into a one-bedroom home with the right partitions. It helps to have a spacious unit to work with, of course. To help you make the right choice, we’ve compared the sizes of the studio units available at some of the ready-for-occupancy and preselling properties in the Metro today. We’ve noted the prices, too, so you can make a fair comparison.
