Sayers Common has an excellent community village shop, a public house and good primary schools in nearby Twineham and Albourne. The village of Sayers Common is surrounded by open countryside which is interspersed with public footpaths and bridleways linking with neighbouring districts. Nearby Hurstpierpoint (approximately one and a half miles away) has a bustling High Street with numerous shops, stores and restaurants, public houses, a health centre and leisure facilities. Hassocks lies approximately three miles away where there is a mainline railway station (linking with London and Brighton) and a good secondary school.

DIRECTIONS
From our offices in Hassocks village proceed along the Keymer Road heading West through the Stonepound Crossroads, on through Hurstpierpoint High Street, over the mini roundabout and on to the traffic lights, turn right onto the London Road (B2118), follow the road through to Sayers Common and Sayers can be found on the left hand side opposite Berrylands Farm.
The property has been attractively priced as there will be a new homes development constructed in the fields behind in the near future meaning some noise disturbance during the construction phase.
