Fitting four bedrooms into 1,455 square feet may result in smaller individual room dimensions, which could feel restrictive for families requiring larger living areas.
The 6,055 square foot lot offers limited outdoor space for significant expansion or large-scale landscaping projects compared to other suburban properties in this price bracket.
