The distance from the sun, which we call the Goldilocks zone. Far enough to not get baked into barren-ness like Mercury, and close enough to not freeze up like Neptune or Uranus.
The presence of water and absence of high concentrations of more “hazardous” components, like Venus’ runaway greenhouse effect and sulfuric acid clouds.
