Does a 3 season room count towards square footage?

We're looking to sell our home and wondering if our 3 season room will count towards the square footage of the house?

Heated/cooled space is usually included in your total sq. footage. Although a screened porch is added "living space" it is not calculated as such. An increase in your sq. footage could result in increased property taxes for you (or for the new owner if your property is being sold).
