Provided your house is just another unit in a subdivision. I'm in a
unique house on two acres. The selling points a

Two acres
Good freeway access
Good schools
A 20x40 outbuilding (currently outfitted as a workshop)
Three-season room
Loads of charm:

The negatives:

Only 1200 square feet (including that three-season room)
Only one bathroom
Miniscule kitchen

Anybody who would consider my house wouldn't be deterred by
it not being comparable to other houses in its price range.

Everybody's circumstances are different.
