It has considerable period detail throughout, with exposed timbers, beams, and open fireplaces. The front door opens onto a wide hallway, giving access to the main reception rooms. The spacious sitting and drawing rooms provide plenty of family and private space. These are complemented by the kitchen and adjacent dining room, which provide space for entertaining while giving an air of tranquillity. From the kitchen, a door leads directly onto the extensive rear garden, whilst the utility room gives side access to the drive, barns and garage.
The first floor has four double bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate shower room. The gardens are well-screened from other properties, and there are several mature trees, including a fine Himalayan Magnolia, together with Yew and Ash trees. The garden is principally laid to lawn and is enclosed on all sides by the stone walls and fencing. At the side rear of the house is an open-fronted five-bay barn providing parking, a garage and a log store to one side. It may be possible to convert these to a dwelling subject to planning permission (granted in the past). From circa 1520 until the latter half of the last century, Brasenose College owned Court Place.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
