That would depend on where you live, building regs have been around since at least 1666, but in any case I doubt you have anything to worry about.
Having said that, if the room was being used as a bedroom, I'd probably want to bring it up to the current standards, or at least as close as possible. Certainly from the safety point of view.0 -
We have used it as a bedroom in the past, but now it is a hobbies room with a sofa bed in it for occasional use as a bedroom.
We only wanted to know in case we sell it, whether we can market it as a three-bedroomed house.(AKA HRH_MUngo)
