6 The Twitten, Ditchling, Hassocks, BN6 8UJ

6 The Twitten is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ditchling, Hassocks, Hassocks (BN6 8UJ). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2023) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include notable views and outbuildings. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since April 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 135 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £628,000 sits 946.8% above the 1997 sale of £59,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£41/sq ft) was about 73.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2012.
