uncomeliness
Absence of appeal
Uncomeliness is the quality of being unattractive or lacking physical appeal.
The word is old-fashioned and literary, carrying a gentler tone than ugliness: Despite her uncomeliness, she possessed a charm that drew people to her.
It can extend beyond appearance to suggest a lack of grace or propriety.
