A corner lot can be a plus or a minus. Based on pre-owned sales, it is a slight negative. More likely this is Dependant on how busy the street really is. Even an interior street can have a lot of traffic. Take a look at how many homes have to go past this home to get home. The positive things are that you usually have a larger lot, more space, maybe room for a pool, extra space between lanai's. The negative things, higher cost for lawn maintenance, mowing, fertilizer, pest control, twice as many early AM carts going by, higher taxes, probably almost double the amount of landscaping required.
I would not select or rule out a home on a corner lot. More important are location, home access past this home, the home itself, price/value, and your budget.
