Green tends to become a binder for me in many paintings.  Something to tie the whole thing together.  What interested me in this particular view was the bushes creating a line across the horizon. Also, the house behind the bushes was simple and also the lack of trees in the background creating a surreal effect.  It reminds me of the land dipping behind the house to suggest a body of water or a big drop such as a valley in back.  The painting is still in progress-it needs a little more work.
