Attic bedroom question

Tim Kaminski

BP,

Looking at an old 1860s home for long term buy and hold that is listed as a 2 bedroom but definitely has 3. The third “bedroom” is on the other side of the hall on the 3rd floor and I believe may not be considered a bedroom due to height of ceiling being low? It’s a large room with 4 windows, a closet, but a sloping ceiling that at its lowest point is probably 5’10”.

Numbers only work if I rent out as a 3 bedroom. Will I get in trouble if I list this as 3 bedroom when renting out? What issues can I expect to run into?

Thanks,

Tim
