Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 4407, other record living area = 3226.
Premium Price Point: The $7.5 million list price, while reflective of the exclusive Menlo Park market, positions the property at the very high end, potentially limiting the pool of prospective buyers.
Potential for Higher Maintenance Costs: A large, multi-level home with extensive professional landscaping, a hot tub, and specialized entertainment features (built-in bar, wine storage) will likely incur substantial ongoing maintenance and utility expenses.
Absence of Explicit Modern Green/Smart Home Features: While built in 2004, the description does not highlight specific contemporary energy-efficient upgrades (e.g., solar panels, advanced smart home systems, EV charging) that are increasingly sought after in the luxury market.
