Cons
Year Built Discrepancy: There is conflicting information regarding the property's age; public records indicate a 2015 build/remodel, while the MLS lists 1970, which may require clarification for buyers and lenders.
Secluded Location (Dual Nature): While a strength for privacy, the 'very secluded' nature might be a drawback for buyers who prefer closer proximity to immediate neighbors or urban conveniences.
Modest Interior Square Footage: With 1185 sqft, the interior living space is relatively modest, which may not appeal to buyers seeking larger homes or more expansive living areas, especially given the large lot size.
