Cons

Single Bathroom: The property features only one bathroom, which may be a limiting factor for families or those desiring additional facilities.
Compact Size: With 1021 sqft and a 2500 sqft lot, the home and yard are relatively compact, potentially not meeting the space requirements of all prospective buyers.
Wall Furnace Heating: The heating system relies on a wall furnace, which may be less efficient or provide less uniform heating compared to a central HVAC system, and there is no mention of air conditioning.
