The grounds are undoubtedly one of Woodside's most remarkable features.

Immediately adjoining the house is a terrace, perfectly positioned for outdoor dining and relaxation. To the side, a charming wisteria-clad pergola leads through the gardens to the dedicated entertaining area. A superb garden room provides an ideal space for hosting friends and family throughout the year and offers versatility as a home office, studio or gym. Alongside sits a covered outdoor kitchen and barbecue area, complete with preparation space and storage, while surrounding decked seating areas and a fire pit create a natural gathering space for relaxed summer evenings.

The driveway provides parking for numerous vehicles and gives access to two adjoining single garages, both of which benefit from particularly high ceilings. A charming covered loggia extends across the front of the garages, providing a useful sheltered space while enhancing the property's characterful appearance. Subject to the necessary permissions, there is potential to create additional accommodation above the garages.
