Cons

Pre-Construction/Future Occupancy: The property is listed with a 'year_built' of 2026 and an 'on_market_date' in late 2025, indicating it is either under construction or a pre-sale, meaning immediate occupancy is not possible.
Premium Price Point: The list price of $3,999,000 represents a significant investment, placing it in the luxury market segment and potentially narrowing the pool of prospective buyers.
Total Square Footage for Price: While offering 5 beds/6 baths and ADUs, the total 2923 sqft might be considered modest by some luxury buyers for a property priced at nearly $4 million, especially if a substantial portion is allocated to the ADUs rather than the main living space.
