Cons

Data Inconsistencies: Discrepancies between the listed 'year_built' (1954) and the '2017-built' description, as well as the main data's bedroom/bathroom count versus the detailed description, could cause confusion and require clarification for prospective buyers.
Limited Primary Residence Bedrooms: While a luxurious guest villa is present, the main residence offers only 3 bedrooms. For a property of this size and price in the ultra-luxury market, some buyers may expect a higher bedroom count within the primary living space.
