This handsome 1930s semi-detached house in central Hassocks combines original period character with practical family living across three floors. The bright living room retains a large bay and working open fireplace; a kitchen/diner opens to a sheltered canopy seating area that extends entertaining into the garden. The property is chain-free and benefits from an 80ft west-facing rear garden, detached garage and private driveway for one car.
A previous loft conversion provides two substantial top-floor bedrooms and a shower room, giving five-bedroom flexibility (or home-office space). The home has useful built-in storage, double glazing and a gas boiler with radiators. There is scope to increase footprint further subject to planning consent (STANPC) for buyers wanting more space or value-added refurbishment.
Notable practical points: the EPC rating is E and the house dates from the 1930s, so energy improvements would be beneficial. The property is presented in sound, lived-in condition but not fully modernised throughout; buyers should allow for updating to kitchens, bathrooms or insulation to improve efficiency. Council tax band D.
Positioned a short walk from Hassocks High Street, shops, schools and the mainline station, this home suits growing families seeking character, garden space and good local schooling, or investors targeting rental demand in a very affluent, low-crime area. The chain-free status and extension potential make it attractive for buyers aiming to personalise and enhance value.
