About Ockley Park
Development Overview
Ockley Park is a large-scale new build homes development by Taylor Wimpey, located at 1 Avenue De Warenne, Hassocks, West Sussex, BN6 8NY. The master plan for the development includes approximately 500 new residences, which are a mix of 2-bedroom apartments and 2, 3, 4, and 5-bedroom houses. The development is well-established, with over 75% of homes already sold and a selection of properties available for immediate move-in or with an autumn/Christmas completion date. The architecture features varied external finishes, including different brick types, roof tiles, and coloured weatherboard, designed to create a vibrant and diverse community aesthetic.
Property Details
The collection of homes offers a wide range of property types to suit various buyers, including the 2-bedroom 'Flint House' apartments, 2-bedroom 'The Mapleford' terraced homes, and larger 3 and 4-bedroom detached houses like 'The Ockenden' and 'The Bittesford'. Current available properties start from approximately £299,950 for a 2-bedroom apartment and extend up to £695,000 for certain detached house types.
Standard home specifications typically include a 10-year NHBC warranty, a feature common to new build homes, along with integrated kitchen appliances and flooring throughout. Select plots incorporate modern sustainability and energy-saving measures such as triple glazing, solar panels, and provision for electric vehicle (EV) charging ports. Internal layouts prioritise modern living with open-plan kitchen/living/dining areas, separate utility/cloakroom facilities, and en-suite shower rooms to the principal bedrooms on many house models.
Location Benefits
Ockley Park is positioned on the edge of the South Downs countryside, offering immediate access to green open spaces. On-site community facilities are designed to encourage a strong neighbourhood feel, including a Local Equipped Area for Play (LEAP), a trim trail, a Community Orchard with proposed beehives, and new pathways. A planned bridleway will connect Hassocks with Burgess Hill.
Connectivity is a major benefit, with Hassocks train station located a short walk from the development, providing essential commuter links. Direct train services from Hassocks have a fastest journey time to Brighton of just 9 minutes, and also offer regular direct services to London Victoria and Gatwick Airport. The development is within walking distance of Hassocks village, which provides local, traditional shops. For families, the location is convenient for local schools, including Hassocks Infant School (0.8 miles) and Downlands Community School (0.9 miles).
