CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2193, other record living area = 2098. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 4.
- High Density Floorplan
Fitting five bedrooms and four bathrooms into 2,193 square feet may result in smaller individual room dimensions and a more segmented feel compared to modern open-concept designs.
- Terraced Topography
While the terraced yard provides beautiful views and garden spaces, the lack of a large, flat lawn area may be a drawback for buyers seeking traditional play space or easy-access outdoor recreation.
