What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Wilderness Road, Hassocks is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 54 | 96.4% | £261,175 | £70,000 – £825,000 |
| Semi-detached | 2 | 3.6% | £248,000 | £248,000 – £325,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Wilderness Road, Hassocks
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 56 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 56 | 100.0% | £263,088 |
A further 3 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 07
Living in Wilderness Road, Hassocks
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Horsham, 46.5% of 66,946 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 5.6% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 261 | 0.4% |
| B | 11,180 | 16.7% |
| C | 19,672 | 29.4% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Horsham at £1,460 a month as of Jun 2026 — £1,013 for a one-bedroom home and £1,682 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £263,088 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.66% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of BN6, 53 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 11 violent, 2 burglary, 6 vehicle-related and 15 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.2 times quieter.
Against the 146,778 residents the 2021 census counted in Horsham, that is 0.36 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.
Section 08

Within Hassocks the street ranks 186 of 259 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £300,000 (-12.3%).

The full range on record runs from £70,000 to £825,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.
Wilderness Road, Hassocks sits in Horsham, in the South East.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Horsham at 11.5 times median local earnings of £37,981 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6.
