Annette:In Ohio, the County Auditor's office does not include bathrooms as rooms. In addition, none of the rooms below grade (meaning in the basement) are counted, unless you have a walk-out basement. The number of bathrooms are listed separately. If you list your home for sale, the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), allows bathrooms in the basement to be counted, even though other rooms in the basement are not counted in the total room count.
Hi annetteh17 -
As defined by the local assessor's office, total rooms is the number of rooms in the residence such as bedroom, bathroom, dining room, family room, kitchen, living room, attic, basement, and garage.
For homes with open floor plans, areas that have distinct and separate uses can be counted as a room. For example, a kitchen that flows into another larger room that has a dining room table may be considered two rooms; a "breakfast bar" or breakfast nook would not. Ancillary rooms such as basements, garages and sun rooms that are finished and enclosed can be counted as a room.
Thank you.
