#1 A 7 ft. length or width
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.
