CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =1969, other record lot size in square feet = 1900.
- Compact Living Area
At just 840 square feet, the interior footprint is relatively small for a single-family home, which may limit appeal for buyers requiring more spacious rooms or a home office.
- Minimal Lot Size
The 1,969 square foot lot offers very limited outdoor space and restricts the potential for future structural expansions or the addition of an accessory dwelling unit (ADU).
