Big selling point

The rooftop patio is 1,000 square feet, with irrigation for a vegetable garden, a hot tub and built-in wiring for music and lights. With a pool in the backyard and a dining room that easily sits 16, this house is made for entertaining.

Possible deal breaker

The main entrance is concealed down a walkway at the side of the home, which makes for a bit of an unusual facade—not to mention a lifetime of having to give detailed instructions to delivery people.
