Exquisite home in the sought after village of Hassocks, West Sussex
This beautifully Extended detached home on Brighton Road, Hassocks is brought to the market by our Mid Sussex Property Expert, Kris Townsend.
Arranged over almost 1500 square feet, this generously sized property has three large bedrooms and two further rooms- ideal for a home office and babies nursery.
Set back from the Brighton Road on one of Hassocks’ most desirable private lanes, this unique detached home offers generous, flexible living and exceptional quality throughout — just minutes from the village centre and mainline station.
Despite its convenient location, the property is remarkably peaceful, and once in the garden you could easily imagine yourself in the middle of the countryside, at the foot of the beautiful scenery of Wolstonbury Hill and the South Downs National Park.
To the front, a wide double driveway provides ample off-road parking. Inside, the ground floor features solid wood flooring and high‑quality fixtures and fittings throughout.
There are two spacious double bedrooms (one front-facing, one to the rear), a beautifully decorated lounge with ornate fireplace, and a bright sun room running along the side of the house.
A modern bathroom and a versatile office or bedroom complete the downstairs accommodation.
The standout feature is the stunning open‑plan kitchen and dining area stretching across the entire rear of the property. With bi‑fold doors opening to a large, west‑facing patio and level, well‑established garden, it’s a perfect setting for both entertaining and peaceful outdoor living.
At the end of the garden sits a large workshop/shed and a bespoke shed/greenhouse, all enjoying picturesque rural views.
Upstairs, the master bedroom benefits from double‑aspect windows and fitted wardrobes, with a smaller bedroom or office across the landing and a second bathroom completing the layout.
The home also offers rear access with two further parking spaces. Residents of Sandy Lane enjoy shared use of a private green space, and the small, friendly community often holds social events on the residents’ land at the rear of the lane — offering both neighbourly connection and a sense of privacy.
Planning permission (Ref: DM/25/0817) has been granted to enlarge the side and first floors, offering excellent potential to extend this already impressive home.
Hassocks is a thriving village blessed with independent shops, cafés and great places to eat. Its highly regarded infant, middle and secondary schools make it particularly sought-after by families. The mainline train station is a five minute walk, and the village highs street is less than 10 minutes.
There is a regular bus service to Brighton (south) or Burgess Hill (north) right outside of the property.
This wonderful home is perfect for anyone dreaming of village and countryside living while retaining superb connections to the coast, London and beyond.
Gatwick Airport is approximately 20 minutes away by car, with Brighton reachable in 10 minutes and London in under an hour by train.
