Classic Seven Explained

Classic Seven is a seven-room apartment floor plan one can find in buildings built in New York City prior to 1940 consisting of a formal dining room, a living room, a kitchen, three bedrooms, a maid's room, and two or more bathrooms.[1] [2] Classic Seven is essentially Classic Six with an added bedroom.

Layout

A typical maid's room is located away from other bedrooms, almost always off the kitchen to allow maids of the past easy access. A typical maid's room also has a small bathroom attached to it.
