Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1955, other record living area = 1631. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
Several assigned public schools in the immediate area, such as Susan Miller Dorsey Senior High and Wilshire Crest Elementary, carry low performance ratings, which may be a drawback for education-focused buyers.
With the total square footage of 1,955 including the ADU, the main residence's individual rooms and communal living areas may feel undersized for families requiring more interior volume at this price point.
