Would anyone call out this type of construction. The overhang is aprrox 8feet on the one end? The roof is engineered truss.

Not really, it just looks different. Whole neighborhood full of them.

If it's a engineered truss then it should be fine.
If you have access there should be a bearing point where the truss bears on the plate. If there is none I'd question if the truss was designed for the stresses involved.

I'd be more concerned with the downspouts from the upper gutters
emptying onto the roof and overwhelming the lower gutter system |

Agree with Larry, I have no concern with this design.
