Have to agree with the poster above; that bedroom isn't a double bedroom by any stretch of the imagination.

To be fair, you could fit a double bed into it. You wouldn't be able to open (or close) the door, or get anything else in there though...

It's certainly not the most generous room size on the face of the planet, but let's not go OTT... The room is 2.3m x 2.2m. A standard double mattress is 1.9m x 1.35m

that's not really a bedroom though, is it? More like a tiny office.

Generally agree with the other comments, your rooms are actually larger than I thought and I quite like the floor plan. I'd definitely swap the sofas round, lose the blankets and remove the storage unit from behind. If you don't want to swap the child's room I'd move that storage unit and the small table and chairs to bedroom 2. Either way lose the double bed from bedroom three if possible, it really doesn't work. Personally I'd also move the dining table over towards the radiator rather than having it crammed up against the desk area and have that photo re-taken, it makes your table and chairs look enormous and the space tiny. Maybe include a photo of the garden taken from the bottom corner facing the house to show the wider area better. You could get rid of the giant bin and boots in the downstairs loo etc but things like this wouldn't put me off viewing if I could still get a feel for the room sizes.

If it's a room and it's got a bed in, it's a bedroom.
If it's a room and it's got a double bed in, it's a double bedroom.
There's a clue in the name.
Put a tiny desk in, it's a tiny office.

It is what it is. The dimensions are on the floorplan on the RM listing.

Quite why property sales in this country get so hung up on what a "bedroom" is, I will never understand. Other countries are far more sensible - list the number of rooms, list the floor area, let the occupier put their big-boy pants on and figure out what to do with each room for themselves...

Put a bunk bed in the smallest room to maybe appeal to people with a couple of younger children? That way the notion that space is totally squeezed in there disappears because if you are very little there is plenty of space!
