Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
With a lot size of 3,522 square feet, the outdoor space is primarily hardscaped and may feel restrictive for buyers prioritizing a large private yard or green space.
Despite its proximity to the water, the property only offers a 'peek-a-boo' view of South Lake from the primary suite rather than the expansive waterfront vistas often sought at this price point.
