This apartment was originally a two bedroom, but this owner has exchanged one bedroom wall for a sliding pocket door which tucks away nicely or enables easy separation of spaces if desired. Also, the wall may be put back to create a more permanent 2nd bedroom. There is also a drawing for potentially making this into a three bedroom.
