Woodlands is a historic home and farm complex located near Charlottesville, Albemarle County, Virginia. The main block was built in 1842–1843, and is a brick I-house with Federal detailing. It was expanded in the 1890s by a two-story frame-and-brick rear "T" with one- and two-story wraparound verandahs. Also on the property is a tall, narrow frame barn, dated to the 1840s, and later farm buildings erected in the 1910s and '20s including a frame dairy barn, a glazed-tile silo, and a stone-and-frame horse barn.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
