Here off the top of my head make it a bit undesirable (no offense to OP)

Location
to far out from town; no real neighborhood (family's with kids); 2 acres (which is nice but lots of maint.)
I am assuming septic and well water

I think the ideal client for this home is a recent empty Nester. They want down size but don't want be in neighborhood with a bunch of kids or a HOA. Another plus for them is everything is on the first floor. They got be old enough to have adult children but young enough to still maintain the land.
I thought it was going to be an empty-nester or another first-time home buyer. One kink in this plan is that we absolutely cannot accept a contigent deal ourselves because my work is basically making an exception by letting us own two homes and wants that money back ASAP. In the beginning they said, "This isn't your primary house anymore? Then you owe us the balance in 30 days." I had to have a long meeting with the VP about our circumstances (even though it doesn't say anywhere in the fine print about being a primary residence).
