- Penthouse Privacy & Amenities

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1145, other record living area = 450. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 2, other record bedroom count = 1.
- Limited Bathroom Count
With two bedrooms but only one bathroom, the layout may be less convenient for roommates or families compared to more modern 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom configurations.
- Lack of In-Unit Laundry
While the laundry room is conveniently located just outside the unit and shared with only two others, the absence of private in-unit laundry facilities may be a drawback for some buyers.
