About 6 The Close
6 The Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hassocks (BN6 8DW). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1067 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2009) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £522,000 sits 74% above the 2009 sale of £300,000. At 99 m² it's 18.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (122 m² median across 10 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
