Premium listing to promote our annexe?

( NC as this identifies me )We put our house on the market a few days before lockdown, so we have no idea how much interest it generated.
Our unique point is a pretty, detached annexe that is a proper separate house. I can't decide if it is worth paying for a Premium listing so photos of the annexe as well as the house show up in listings. Can you have a look and tell me if it is clear enough?

What do you think? I suspect that anyone looking for an annexe will find it anyway, but then I wonder if we should be going all out, because this is effectively our launch to the market. We are downsizing, so we aren't in a hurry, though it would be nice to feel settled.

Check the plans - it looks like there are no windows in the ensuite / downstairs loo. Is that right?

I think you need to include a full description of the access & legal positions so that if someone is contemplating it as a 4 bed + let then does it allow for separate access? Can you legally let it?

"Thanks for all the comments, they are really helpful. I agree with all of you who said the title is unclear, and I'll discuss that with the agent. It sounds as if it isn't worth going for a premium listing. From what I've read, the cost depends on the arrangement your agent has with Rightmove, and I haven't asked."

I'd be suggesting to the agent that you're not impressed with their 'marketing ability' as people you've spoken to have said how confusing the details are. So could they give you a free Premium listing to make up for that. Haggle. :)

Personally, I would never pay for premium listing. If people are looking for a house they mine the internet like their life depends on it. If people are seriously looking they will find it.
Lovely home by the way
