studio (flat)


Explanation:
Neviem ako taký malometražný byt vyzerá, ale také malé bytíky sa tu volajú "studio flats".

Alebo, ak tam musí zostať to "malometražný", "small (living) space flat".

modestly sized


Explanation:
Nevím v angličtině o slově jako malometrážní – i luxusní nemovitosti se prodávají jako small (nebo tiny) flat (apartment - někdy i v UK). Modest nezní moc prestižně, ale modestly sized už je lepší.

Compact size o bytech méně často, to spíš a compact space/unit...

Studio je konrétnější v tom, že jde o jednu místnost na bydlení, často malou.

small-sized (apartment)


Explanation:
Toto je dosť často používaný výraz (mimo GB a USA), takže záleží na tom, komu je preklad určený. Ja to preferujem preto, lebo aj u nás existujú 2 a 3 izbové malometrážne byty, nielen garsónky.

Example sentence(s):
  • An average small-sized apartment is approximately 81 square meter(m2) and the purchasing price ranges from US$165,500~250,000.
