Cons

Original Construction Year: Despite updates, the underlying structure dates back to 1957, which may raise concerns for some buyers regarding potential deferred maintenance or the need for future system upgrades not covered by recent renovations.
Recent Price Reduction: The property has undergone a price reduction from its original listing, which could signal initial overpricing or a slower market response, potentially impacting buyer perception of value.
Valuation Discrepancy: The current list price is slightly above the estimated property value, which might lead to extended market time or require further price adjustments to align with market expectations.
