You need a certain length or width of at least 7 feet. That’s not a very big size bedroom, but it is the required size for a bedroom.

 

#2 Heater

A bedroom needs a heater, whether it’s a radiator or HVAC forced air. You need to make sure that the room doesn’t fall below a certain room temperature.

 

#3 Window

The most important part is the window. You need the window to be opened to a certain degree to allow air to come in the room to have circulation should the tenant need it.

 

#4 Closet

You need to make sure that there’s a closet, typically at least 24 inches in depth, the length of it doesn’t matter as much.

 

#5 Door

This 5th element is the most important because a door is essential not just for privacy but for the safety of tenants as well.

 

Those are the common or basic aspects of a bedroom. May it be in the attic or in the basement, as long as it has these aspects, it can be considered a bedroom.

 

If you or anyone else you know, is looking for a proactive property manager to help explain to you if a part of your house is a bedroom or not, please think of Green Ocean Property Management, where you get more than a property manager, you get peace of mind.
