The list price of £695,000 needs to be considered relative to other properties in the area and its condition. Nearby properties on Wilmington Close show prices varying considerably, indicating some inconsistency. Considering the need for renovations, the price is on the higher side but not unreasonable, especially given the location and potential for adding value through refurbishment. The lack of sqft data for comparable properties makes precise analysis challenging.

The property shows its age in the provided photos. While structurally sound, the interior finishes such as the carpets, kitchen, and bathroom appear dated and in need of some modernization. Although there’s no visible major damage, a significant amount of cosmetic work and potentially some upgrades are likely needed to bring it to a higher standard. Thus, it is a fair condition, but not excellent.

The property is located in Wilmington Close, Hassocks, which benefits from being close to Hassocks mainline station (0.80 KM), providing convenient access to commuting options. The proximity to highly-rated schools such as Hassocks Infant School and Downlands Community School (both ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted ratings) adds significant value. While the immediate area may lack some amenities compared to larger towns, the convenience of the station and good schools makes this a desirable location for families.

The property includes a garden which is of a reasonable size for a house in this area. While it’s not expansive, it provides usable outdoor space. The size seems appropriate for the property’s size and is a positive attribute.
