I would call it “semi usable” space. This is an an older home that has regular stairs up to the attic. I could tell that someone in the past has used it for a hobby area as it is well lightrd and has plenty of outlets. Right now, we just use it for storage. Total area up there that you can stand up in is probably 900 square feet. All of the areas I need to cover are easily reachable either by standing or with a ladder. Here is a better picture of part of the attic. It has several leaded glass windows that tilt inward for ventilation in the summer.
