Overview
When most locals think of Woodside, it’s the magnificent estates of Central Woodside that first come to mind. Along Mountain Home Road awaits an array of spectacular mansions, many concealed behind huge hedges for privacy. In fact, Central Woodside broke the record (at the time) for the most expensive home sale in California when one of its mansions sold for $117.5M in late 2012.
Central Woodside is home to some of Silicon Valley’s top executives, entrepreneurs, financiers, and venture capitalists. Its grand estates are appealing in their own right, and their desirability is further elevated by their seclusion. Proximity to the Village of Woodside, Sand Hill Road, and Interstate 280 is also an immense asset. Central Woodside tends to be flatter than the rest of Woodside, contributing to its value as an equestrian retreat; horse trails are abundant and the lots are large enough (and zoned for) horses. A Central Woodside estate offering beautiful views on a flat lot not affected by interstate noise will fetch a premium price. As the home of some of the most expensive residences on the Peninsula, the whole neighborhood exudes wealth and luxury. If you’ve truly “made it,” then Central Woodside might be the perfect place for you.
