Gravel buyers are usually planning something specific, whether that is bikepacking, commuting on rough surfaces, or racing. Tyre clearance and mounting points decide whether your bike fits that plan, so state them before anything else.
Clearance and mounts widen the pool of buyers more than component tier does, because they determine what the bike can be used for. A bike that takes a wide tyre and carries luggage appeals to both bikepacking and commuting buyers at once.

List it with the setup that matches the bike character, and mention that you have the other set. Offering both, and saying so, tends to widen interest at no cost to you.
Yes. Race use is not a negative to most gravel buyers, and hiding it tends to surface awkwardly later. What buyers want alongside it is the maintenance record: if it has been raced and well maintained, say both together.
