    What’s the minimum ceiling height to advertise an area as liveable? I have a feeling its 2.0M but cant remember where I read about it.

    Thanks.

    Thanks. I’m guessing non-habitable means lounge room/kitchen etc or is it any room within the property to be listed as a “living area”?

    any room that is a store room, bathroom or laundry etc. is non habitable. Kitchen, living rumpus, bedrooms are habitable rooms

    As a matter of interest you have to have 2.1 for door height. We were just in a renovated hotel in China where the ceiling was 2.1
    (obviously to put in sprinklers a/c, etc.) and it looked very low.

    Geez I’ve got basketball teammates whose average height is close to 2m and some exceed 2.1m. Reminder me never to buy there I’d make a terrible host!
