The floorplans give an excellent overview of the layout. The interior is notably spacious, with high ceilings throughout. The principal rooms are set around a wood panelled reception hall, from which a sweeping staircase rises to the first floor. At the rear of the hall lies a formal drawing room with an open fireplace that incorporates a cast iron hood and firebasket; there are French doors opening to the terrace. There is a snug, a separate dining room, both also with French doors to the terrace, and a study and cloakroom also leading from the hall.

The kitchen connects to a single storey extension that forms a bright family and breakfast room with windows to two sides, as well as a utility room, pantry, conservatory and a WC. A first floor office or storage space is reached from the utility room by means of a pull down ladder.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite includes a walk in wardrobe, an en suite bathroom with both a bath and a walk in shower, and access to a balcony terrace. Three additional bedrooms each have an en suite shower room and WC, and there is a separate bathroom. The attic is reached from the landing.

Outside, Woodlands Farm sits back from the road and is enclosed on three sides by its own land. A five bar gate opens to the gravelled driveway which offers plenty of parking space ahead of the house. There is a two bay garage with electronically operated doors and at the rear, a metal spiral staircase rises to a storage area above. A further five bar gate opens to the paddock, while secure gates open into the stable yard. Within the yard is a timber stable block, added in 2016, and comprising three stables, a tack room with an adjoining hay store, and a machinery store. At the rear of the block there is a garden store and a WC. Beyond this area lies an all-weather tennis court.

The formal gardens extend to the south and west of the house. To the south is an enclosed courtyard garden with raised beds and a water feature. A wide terrace stretches along the west facing rear elevation, offering ample space for outdoor seating. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enjoys an open rural outlook, bordered by paddocks on all sides. It is enclosed by hedging to the north and west, and remains open to the southern paddock and woodland. Beyond the courtyard garden is a small enclosure with a timber shed and a five bar gate to the lane.

In all, the grounds extend to about 11.34 acres.
