It's ok if it shows up on Form 8949. Form 8949 is not just for investment sales reported on a Form 1099-B. It's for any asset sales other than those related to a business. It sounded like you were on the right track. If you have a gain on the transaction it won't matter whether you report it as a second home or an investment property.
