WHEN Is A LOFT Considered A ONE Bedroom?
It’s a LOFT ! Would you want to see if not knowing if it’s a Studio or One Bedroom?
Very often you will see a listing in a Realtor® database that states the property is a one bedroom loft.
Does this mean an “open floorplan” one bedroom or does this mean you’ll have a living area and sleeping area that are not separated by a wall and a door? If the bedroom is up a set of stairs yet still open to the area below is that a one bedroom or a loft.
Which is it?
Many times I’ll walk a client into a showing and they’ll sigh audibly and say: “It’s a studio.” The tone they’ve used often makes me feel like we’ve wasted our time and we ought to turn off the lights and leave.
In my experience the simplest way to separate LOFTs from real ONE Bedrooms is to ask; “does the bedroom have a door?” When there’s a door, there’s usually a wall and that means it isn’t a studio loft but a real one bedroom.
Unfortunately, the 411 public access to the Realtor® database doesn’t tell you when it says one bedroom loft whether the bedroom has a door! That’s why you need me, a full time, licensed, Realtor® who knows how to get that vital piece of information!
