We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
** One Bedroom Self-Contained Annex ** Michaels Property Consultants are delighted to present an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire this unique and deceptively spacious five-bedroom detached home, complete with a fully self-contained one-bedroom annex.
Ideally positioned within the highly sought-after and much requested village of Rayne, this traditionally built residence offers the perfect balance of village tranquillity and versatile modern living.
The main house is ideally suited to growing families, while the annex provides excellent additional accommodation for an elderly relative, guest suite, or potential income opportunity.
The ground floor of the main residence comprises a welcoming entrance hall with stairs to the first floor, a cloakroom, an impressive 24’ modern fitted kitchen/diner featuring French doors opening onto the rear garden, and a separate utility room, a double-aspect living room with log burner, and a study.
To the first floor, the principal bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom.
The second bedroom also enjoys its own en suite shower room, alongside two further well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom.
The self-contained annex is arranged over two floors and offers highly flexible accommodation, including a cloakroom, a well-appointed living room, a fully equipped kitchen/diner, and a generous first-floor bedroom with en suite shower room.
Externally, the property boasts a beautifully landscaped and unoverlooked rear garden, a double garage with electric roller door, and a substantial driveway providing off-road parking for multiple vehicles.
