Rustoleum and gianni have countertop restoration kits
You could hire a professional faux painter to chamoflage it, but then I would feel guilty selling my problem to some poor new home owner.
To me it is barely noticeable and not a deal breaker for purchasing a house. There are options. You can do nothing and if it becomes an issue you can give them an "allowance" for a new countertops. Another option is to buy a countertop refinishing kits like this.
