Square footage is all living area regardless of which or how many floors.
This varies, depending on the size of the rooms and number of other rooms, such as den, home office, etc., but the average is around 2,000 - 2,500 sq. ft. heated, with an average of 500 unheated sq. ft. (garage, carport, patio), for a total of 2,500 - 3,000 square feet.
Additions add value to a home because of increased square footage. Some potential buyers may want a larger home. A larger home creates more potential to do more things with the extra space provided. Other buyers may compare the average cost of square footage to other homes in the area.
Unless you have a flat roof, no; the surface area of the roof will be larger than the ground area of the building.
If your wanting the entire square footage you can measure the width and length of your home from the outside. If your wanting to know the square footage of the heated space, measure each room width and length that have air ducts. Multiply the width and length measurements.
