I think most people expect a window and closet for every true bedroom, regardless of the code.

Is 3 additional windows (4 total) a decent trade for no traditional closet?

I’d rather have a closet and 3 windows from my perspective but it would also depend on the size of the room. If it’s a large room I can easily fit more furniture as a trade off (a standing closet for example).

If someone is looking to purchase in order to rent out the house, the no closet thing could be a sticky point because renters definitely want a closet.

Good point. Is the room with no closet big enough for a freestanding wardrobe? What about putting in one of the ones from IKEA and making it look built-in?

It is the second largest bedroom and we plan to get an ikea wardrobe. It will be attached to the wall and included in the sale.
