Jun 26, 2013 at 12:15 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński I wonder if this question is related to the continuum hypothesis. What about sets $S$ which have an intermediate cardinality?
Jun 26, 2013 at 11:21 comment added Misha Also, for every $G_{\delta}$-subset $S$ of ${\mathbb R}$ which is dense and has empty interior, one has $S\cong S\times S$. The reason is that such $S$ is a Polish space and, hence, Alexandrov-Uryson theorem implies that both $S$ and $S\times S$ are homeomorphic to ${\mathbb R}\setminus {\mathbb Q}$.
Jun 26, 2013 at 11:08 comment added Misha The question seems to be well within the scope of MO, compare mathoverflow.net/questions/26001/… with an answer containing a reference to several proofs of Sierpinsky's theorem, that provides a partial answer to the OP question.
Jun 26, 2013 at 9:46 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński @user35739: I would first of all wonder about a full characterization of the spaces $S$ with the property of having all (relative) open intervals homeomorphic one to another. There is no need a priori to mention anything about $S$ being dense or having empty interior (it's that elegant :-).
Jun 26, 2013 at 9:41 comment added Włodzimierz Holsztyński @Andras: would you explain why?
