Yes, but you have to go through a bedroom to get to it don’t you? It wouldn’t be ideal if as a family you needed all 4 bedrooms. With the store room on the other side It seems an awkward layout upstairs altogether!davidmcn said:

All you have to do is ask the agent or vendor why it is marketed as a 3 b/r not 4. It will be due to fire regs, height or width, or possibly it hasn't had RSJ's inserted to strengthen the floor, so can only be classified as storage space.
As stated above, if the agent misrepresents it, they become also liable, hence the caution.No free lunch, and no free laptop

No, I think you're misreading the floor plan. You go from the landing through door, turn left to go up stairs to attic, or straight on through another door to get into bedroom.SameOldRoundabout said:

Red door off the landing to a small lobby, then either left up stairs or green door to bedroom.
Then a door at the other end of that wall to an understairs cupboard within the bedroom.4 -
Is the issue the ceiling height at the top of the stairs? i.e. potential hazard if room were to be classified as a bedroom.0

That middle floor with one bathroom a separate toilet (without a sink!) and 3 bedrooms would put me off.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

They do like a W/C don't they...There must have been a sale on toilets in Stoke.silvercar said:That middle floor with one bathroom a separate toilet (without a sink!) and 3 bedrooms would put me off.
Although rare there are some arguments to separate the toilet from a main bathroom, but certainly with a sink in the W/C.
You could remodel that second floor a bit if there is closet space next to the main bathroom to sort out the problem.
I think its quite an impressive house. Perhaps OP can let us know more about the status of that attic room.1 -
You’re right, I was misreading it. My bad. Not sure I’ve seen a floor plan where they show the door at the top of the stairs before! Let us know what it’s like in the flesh OP, it’s lovely from the outside.davidmcn said:
