Morphology

Formed regularly from the noun 'balcony' with the adjectival/deverbal suffix '-ed' meaning 'having or provided with balconies'.

Etymology

The word balconied comes from balcony, which comes from Italian balcone, a word for a 'platform' that sticks out from a building. That Italian word is linked to an old word for the 'beam' that holds the platform, so a balconied house or room is one that has one or more balconies sticking out.
