House we're keen on buying has been on market for months with little interest - should we be concerned?

We've viewed the house a couple of times. It needs updating throughout, elderly couple have lives there 25 years, but the size and layout are just what we need and it has potential to extend. Location is lovely, peaceful and not overlooked.

The thing that concerns me is that it's been on the market on and off since last May. In that time it's had one offer which was rejected.
There seems to be little interest in the property and we're wondering if we're missing something?

We put an offer in the other week which was rejected but I can't stop thinking about the house.

Should we be concerned how long it's been up for sale?

I would assume overpriced if it's not selling. Lots of people see potential in dated properties and even more as they are often priced lower. We bought our current property in such a state, needed complete refurb and trees in back garden needed to be removed as causing damage according to survey. Only went for it as a live in project and now looking to sell up.
