Buying
I think the seller might have room.
Negotiating room needs evidence: the home's sales history, the seller's timing and what comparable homes really sold for.
Where to start
“What do you know about the seller's timing, the property and your alternatives?”

“Despite the challenges of a competitive market, Praveen's expert negotiation skills helped us secure our first home under the asking price--a remarkable achievement that set the tone for our trust in him.”
“With an offer in hand with the seller Praveen still managed to negotiate that the offer be updated with a desired 120 day close in order to meet our inter-state moving timeline.”
“I decided on a house and he had the offer together quickly and negotiated diligently to get me the house I wanted for the price I wanted to pay.”
“We found our dream home and praveen was awesome at negotiating the best price for us and getting us a deal that we were comfortable with.”

Questions worth asking
Better questions first
What are we assuming?
Separate what is observed from what is inferred. A listing photo shows a room; it does not prove a renovation caused a result. A comparison supplies evidence; it still needs interpretation.
Bring this question to PraveenWould the seller believe this offer will close?
Price is one signal. Funding, deposit, appraisal exposure and the seller's own timing can make a number more credible, or less.
