Don't think there is any legal definition of what EAs can call a "bedroom" , unless it is loft space.silvercar said:

I wonder what it will sell for?

If I fold down a table in my kitchen I can fit a single bed in there. With the two lounges, I guess I now live in a six bedroom house.Patr100 said:

The back of my mind had a legal definition of bedroom as a room big enough for a single bed and with an opening window. Surprised to find on https://www.ricsfirms.com/glossary/what-is-a-bedroom/ that there's absolutely no legal definition. Maybe there was in the past or I'm misremembering something from EU regulations.Patr100 said:

Now I'm thinking of the definition of "room" - would a partitioned 4m2 area of a space with 1m walls count? 1.5m walls? 2m walls? Seems like it's the wild west out there, and EAs are certainly on their horses and ready to say anything.0 -
Consider all the implications though.
If there was a strict definition of a bedroom, lots of separated parents may find that their spare room where child would stay no longer fits the definition and might lose access or something.

I think there is a building regs requirement for windows for exit. My uncle has a bungalow/barn conversion and building regs were very keen that he could climb out of each bedroom through the window. Not sure if they were having a laugh as he would definitely not be climbing out of a window in his 70s. One of the rooms actually had an external door and the building regs chap was looking at the window until the DOOR was pointed out.0

Lots to see here. Beautiful windows, beautiful floor in the hall, stupendous fireplaces, bars on back windows, green bathroom. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/149898596#/?channel=RES_BUY6
