MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1420, other record living area = 1300.
Modest Lot Size: The 5,227 sqft corner lot, while thoughtfully utilized, is relatively compact for a 4-bedroom home, potentially limiting extensive future expansion or larger outdoor amenities beyond the current setup.
Age of Original Structure: Despite significant modern upgrades, the home's original construction year of 1947 means the underlying foundation and some structural components are older, which could imply potential long-term maintenance considerations not covered by recent renovations.
Bathroom-to-Bedroom Ratio: With 4 bedrooms and only 2 bathrooms, the property may present practical challenges for larger families or multiple occupants, potentially impacting daily convenience and flow during peak usage.
