Nature

The entire estate is built around walkways and gardens maintained by the estate, with the central feature of the community oval. The oval often features informal sports games between parents and children.

Security

The estate is secured by an electrified patrolled perimeter fence, and access control. Very few incidents have been reported over the last 14 years and Woodlands is proud to be a secure community.

Information technology

Woodlands was the first estate in South Africa to offer 'connected' living. At the start of the design of the estate, a combination of copper & fibre connections to each house was planned and accommodated. All houses in Woodlands have an internet connection managed by Woodlands IT.
