Description
The Court House is set within the private parkland of Tostock Place. It has recently been extended and fully renovated in the Georgian style to create a wonderful family home. The house has been architect designed with close attention to detail paramount during it's renovation making it a rare, one off country home. The materials and interior design are of the highest standard.
