I guess you misunderstood her discussion, It says 2000 square FOOT not in square meters.. For me the area is quite small if your planning ot have a single storey house. But if you plan to have a second floor, you can have the four rooms located there and one below together with the common areas of your house. Hope I could help.I design houses.Im a civil engineer.
