A bedroom is a private room that is closed off from other living spaces and does not have its only entrance from another bedroom (this is a tandem room). Bedrooms are not required to have a closet and/or window.
While this definition meets appraiser standards and excludes tandem rooms, all MRED room-counting rules/definitions are superseded by local municipality building codes and standards. MRED’s rules for counting rooms are intended to be used in tandem with local building codes and standards.
For display purposes, all bedrooms (regardless of level) must be included in the connectMLS field titled “total bedrooms.” Bedroom level should be specified in the room details. Noting a bedroom as basement-level will cause it to appear as “+1 below grade” on the listing sheet in addition to the above-grade bedrooms.
