Be watchful of a booth dinette inside a slide-out. I don't know about the Aspect, but many manufacturers push the booths closer together to fit them inside a slide-out. The end result is a smaller table and not enough leg room. A no-slide booth dinette will typically have more wall space to work with to spread the booths farther apart. Not only a bigger table and more leg room, but also a longer bed when converted so. For reference, our dinette converted into a bed measures 5'-11" long.
As far as over-all length increase to 26'-7", I don't see it being a big deal. The issue is parking the rig at home of which you say you can accommodate. The wheel base to rear over-hang ratio might be an issue with handling like we had with our PC until I had some suspension upgrades done to make it all better.
BTW, the coffee maker in the cabinet door was a factory feature of the era. It had its challenge making coffee and getting the coffee out of it. Like most PC owners who had it, we eventually removed it to utilize the space inside that cabinet better, and going with a smaller sized conventional coffee maker to place on the counter.
