Woodstock is a historic plantation house located near Scotland Neck, Halifax County, North Carolina. The earliest section dates to about 1783, and is a two-story, vernacular frame dwelling with later rear additions. It was expanded in the mid-19th century to a romantic villa house three bays wide and two large bays deep with a shallow gable roof and one-story full-width front porch. The house is set in a formal landscape designed by Joseph B. Cheshire. [2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. [1]
