Considered 1 bedroom?
I am sure this will ultimately be "ask your local appraiser" but I wanted to get thoughts here if you think this would count as a 1 bedroom. The plan is that the space between the sleeping area and another living area will have a closet with bi-fold doors. I just am trying to decide if I need a door and/or wall between the sleeping quarters and the living area to appraise as one bedroom. Also given this is in a 10-unit building does it matter, as the rent / NOI will be the primary driver for value?

To qualify as a bedroom you'll need a closet, not sure if you have that somewhere. Also I believe you'll need a wall separating the actual bedroom otherwise it is considered a studio. Just my opinion as an architect, not a realtor or appraiser.
