what is the defination on bedroom?

Answer 1

Check with the local building inspector. I'm pretty sure it must have a closet and it must have walls over 4 feet high but I'm sure there are other qualifying factors. When in an environment with septic systems you must limit the number of bedrooms on your plan.

Answer 2

Bedroom: any space in the conditioned area of a dwelling unit or accessory structure
which is 70 square feet and greater in size and which is located along an exterior wall,
but not including the following: hall; bathroom; kitchen; living room (maximum of one
per dwelling unit); dining room (in proximity to kitchen, maximum of one per dwelling
unit); family room (maximum of one per dwelling unit), laundry room, closet/dressing
room opening off of a bedroom. Sewing rooms, dens,
studios, lofts, game rooms, and any other conditioned room along an exterior wall which
is 70 square feet or greater in size will be considered to be bedrooms unless the room is
If a home office, library or similar room is proposed, it may be
exempted from being considered a bedroom if there is no closet and at least one of the
following is present: a) permanently built-in bookcases, desks and other feature that
encumber the room in such a way that it cannot be used as a bedroom; b) a minimum 4
foot opening, without doors, into another room; or c) a half wall (4 foot maximum height)
between the room and another room. A detached building which contains only a half
bath will not routinely be considered as having a bedroom unless it is specifically
identified and permitted as a guest house.

Answer 3
