How To Add A Closet To A Bedroom
iii Answers 3
So based on advice from ratchetfreak in comments I took his advice and went with the 'corridor' effect on the 37" wall (pic below). Every bit the room has two doors information technology gave me an interesting perspective on what the 'walking into the room' vibe was. For door #one (the bottom door in pic) I felt like the closet made the room feel smaller on archway. For door #2 (left wall) I was really surprised that walking into the room didn't feel similar the closet was overbearing.
So my end analysis is that a closet jutting into the room beyond from a doorway is fine. Also, that a corridor effect makes a room feel smaller on entrance. I prefer option 1, although nosotros concluded up going with option ii considering it really was the only place the cupboard would fit.

Accept a await at the Ikea closets. They are pretty functional and are designed to await built in.
Also I don't think at that place's whatever actual law requiring a closet in the bedchamber. And then you lot can call whatever room a bedroom equally long as it has appropriate egress, door and your septic tank is big enough.

I saw a brand new house on the market that had to advertise that the builder would add together a closet to the room before they could call information technology a bedchamber. If it isn't a constabulary, then maybe it is just an understanding among list agents?

I've heard the contrary, if a room has a cupboard, information technology's considered a bedroom, and therefore must meet code requirements for bedrooms (egress, burn alarm, etc.).

In North Carolina, we were able to get the price of a house reduced about $10k because the listing said iv bedrooms but 1 room had no congenital in closet, and so it had to be sold as a 3 bedroom with a finished bonus room.

@DA01 - haha, I couldn't detect crown moulding that matched! Perhaps that's a new diy.se question
