Friars Oak Road, Hassocks, West Sussex BN6

A versatile and extended family home offering flexible living across two floors with excellent accessibility features, generous outdoor space, and strong transport links. Ideally situated near reputable schools and green spaces, this home is perfectl

Nestled in a well-connected residential area, this versatile and thoughtfully extended home presents an excellent opportunity for growing families seeking practicality and accessibility. Boasting a unique layout across two floors, it offers well-designed internal space alongside useful outdoor features.

Upon entering through a uPVC double-glazed front door, you are welcomed into a hallway providing access to both the kitchen/diner and a front-facing room currently arranged as a double bedroom. Originally the living area, this space offers built-in wardrobes and a uPVC window, and could be readily adapted back to a reception room if desired.

The kitchen/diner offers a selection of eye and base level storage units with laminate wood worktops and integrated cooking facilities including an oven, electric hob with extractor, and a 1 1/2 bowl sink with waste disposal. Space is available for additional freestanding appliances and a dining table. Extended in 2016, the rear of the kitchen now flows into a versatile area currently used as an office, alongside a wet room and secluded living space. The wet room is wheelchair-accessible, featuring a low-level WC, power shower with seating, and non-slip flooring with full tiling throughout. Adjacent is a cosy rear living room with ample sockets and network points, and uPVC French doors opening into the garden.

Upstairs, the landing leads to three further rooms and a bathroom. Two of the bedrooms are well-sized, one with a front-facing aspect and fitted wardrobes, and the other with garden views and an airing cupboard housing the boiler and hot water tank. A third room provides flexibility for use as a home office or single bedroom. The family bathroom includes a WC, basin, and shower over bath with frosted uPVC window for ventilation.

The private rear garden includes a paved patio ideal for outdoor seating and dining, lawned area, and a substantial greenhouse. A metal shed and garage with electric door, power and lighting offer excellent storage, with side access available. The garage roof was updated approximately seven years ago. A private driveway at the front accommodates 1-2 vehicles and a shared drive leads to the rear garage. Additional adaptations include a wider external door and ramp, providing improved wheelchair access.

The property is ideally located just a 5-minute walk from Hassocks train station on the Brighton to London Victoria line, making commuting straightforward. It's also conveniently positioned for road travel, with the A23 and A27 nearby, a 50-minute drive to London, 15 minutes to Brighton, and Gatwick Airport just 30 minutes away by car or train.

On the doorstep you've got the South Downs National Park with headline viewpoints at Ditchling Beacon and Devil's Dyke for far-reaching Weald and coastal vistas, walking and the South Downs Way. Wolstonbury Hill rises directly above the village with classic chalk-downland trails and wildlife. For gentler open space, Ditchling Common Country Park and Bedelands Farm Local Nature Reserve offer meadows, woodland and ponds with well-marked paths.

The historic Jack & Jill (Clayton) windmills are a local landmark with sweeping ridge-top views. Family days out include Washbrooks Family Farm in the village, while culture lovers head to Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft. Golfers have Singing Hills at Albourne, and South Downs Nurseries on the Brighton Road combines a vast garden centre with the South Downs Heritage Centre, cafe and craft spaces.

The area offers an excellent range of education options, making it ideal for families. For younger children, Hassocks Infant School is just a short walk away and is highly regarded locally. The Windmills Junior School and St Lawrence CofE Primary School also provide strong primary education choices. For older students, Downlands Community School, less than a mile away, is a popular option with consistently strong Ofsted ratings. Post-16 education is well catered for too, with bhasvic Sixth Form College in nearby Brighton offering a wide selection of a-level and vocational courses.

Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the space, flexibility and location this home offers.
