   How big was Monticello's house?

   • As "larger than life" as Monticello seems, the house has approximately 11,000 sq ft (1,000 m 2) of living space. Jefferson considered much furniture to be a waste of space, so the dining room table was erected only at mealtimes, and beds were built into alcoves cut into thick walls that contain storage space.
