Living in Sully Station:
A Community Built for Real Life
There is a reason Sully Station has remained one of the most searched subdivisions in Centreville year after year — it delivers the full package without the price tag of newer master-planned communities further west. Built primarily between 1988 and 1995, this established community of roughly 3,200 homes sits at the convergence of Route 28, Route 29, and I-66, putting Dulles, Tysons, and the Beltway all within a manageable drive.
"Sully Station is the kind of neighborhood where buyers who've rented in Northern Virginia for years finally plant roots — and rarely look back."
What surprises most buyers touring Sully Station for the first time is the sheer greenery. Decades of mature trees line the walking trails and buffer the streets in a way that newer communities simply cannot replicate. The community association maintains three outdoor pools, tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, and a network of trails that connect across sections — giving residents genuine amenity value baked into the HOA dues.
The housing mix runs from low-maintenance townhomes — ideal for first-time buyers or downsizers — to spacious single-family colonials and contemporary-style homes with two-car garages. The build era matters here: homes from this period often carry upgrade potential that buyers can capture on the back end. That dynamic makes Sully Station equally appealing for buyers building long-term equity and for sellers who have accumulated significant equity in an area with consistent demand.
Everyday conveniences are minutes away. Sully Square, Greenbriar Town Center, and the Fair Lakes corridor cover grocery, dining, and retail. Bull Run Regional Park offers outdoor recreation on a regional scale, and Sully Historic Site adds a rare touch of local character you won't find in most NoVA subdivisions.

Four Things Buyers Miss
When Touring Sully Station
Sully Station shows beautifully on a Saturday afternoon tour. These are the four location- and era-specific issues that experienced buyers investigate before going under contract.
Dulles Airport Flight Path Noise
Sully Station sits within proximity to Dulles International Airport's approach and departure corridors. Homes on the eastern and southeastern edges of the community can experience meaningful aircraft noise, particularly in the early morning and during evening peak departure windows. This is a polarizing issue — some residents barely notice it; others find it significant after move-in.
Visit the specific street on a weekday morning between 6–9 AM and again at dusk. Use the FlightAware or FlightRadar24 app on-site to confirm which flight paths pass overhead.
Polybutylene Pipe Risk
Homes built in Sully Station during the late 1980s and early 1990s fall squarely within the polybutylene plumbing window (roughly 1978–1995 nationally). This gray plastic piping was widely used across Northern Virginia during this era and is prone to cracking and leaking over time — sometimes with little warning. Many insurers now flag or exclude polybutylene-plumbed homes.
Ask your inspector to specifically identify supply line material. If polybutylene (gray or blue plastic marked "PB") is present, get a re-pipe estimate before waiving contingencies — and check with your insurer on coverage implications.
End-of-Life HVAC & Roof Systems
Original HVAC systems installed between 1988 and 1995 have long exceeded their typical 15–20 year service life. Many have been replaced, but some have not — and sellers occasionally defer this disclosure. Similarly, roofs from the original build era are on their second or third cycle by now; a roof installed 12–15 years ago may be approaching its next replacement window depending on shingle grade.
Ask the listing agent for HVAC and roof age upfront. Budget $8,000–$15,000 for HVAC replacement and $12,000–$20,000+ for roof depending on home size if systems are original or aging. Use this in your offer strategy.
Route 28 & Route 29 Congestion
Sully Station's primary egress routes — Route 28 (Centreville Road) and Route 29 (Lee Highway) — are among the most congested corridors in Fairfax County during peak commuting hours. Northbound Route 28 toward Dulles and I-66 east toward Fairfax can back up significantly between 7–9 AM and 4–7 PM on weekdays. Weekend tours often give buyers a false read on true commute conditions.
Run your actual commute route on Google Maps during peak hours before going under contract. The Fairfax Connector bus and OmniRide commuter routes serve the area and can offset peak-hour driving — worth factoring into your lifestyle calculus.

Sully Station: Your Questions, Answered
Everything buyers and sellers most commonly ask about Sully Station — answered honestly, with local detail.
-
HOA fees in Sully Station vary by section and home type. Single-family home sections typically fall in an estimated range of $75–$95 per month, while townhome sections may run slightly higher at approximately $90–$115 per month. Fees cover community pools, courts, trails, and common area maintenance. Always verify current dues directly with the Sully Station Community Association and request the most recent budget and reserve fund study before making an offer.
-
Sully Station's community association covers three outdoor pools with summer swim programs, tennis and basketball courts, tot lots and playgrounds, a community center and clubhouse, and an extensive network of walking and biking trails connecting residential sections. The community is not gated, and there is no on-site fitness center — residents typically use commercial gyms in the Centreville and Chantilly corridor for that purpose.
-
Home prices in Sully Station vary meaningfully by home type and condition. Townhomes typically fall in an estimated range of $450,000–$600,000, while single-family homes generally range from $550,000 to $800,000 or more depending on size, section, and updates. These are estimated typical ranges — actual values depend on current market conditions, lot position, recent upgrades, and mechanical age. For a current, address-specific valuation, request a home valuation here.
-
Sully Station is served by Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS). The typical pyramid for most addresses is Cub Run Elementary → Stone Middle School → Westfield High School. However, some sections of the community feed neighboring FCPS elementaries such as Poplar Tree Elementary or Bull Run Elementary. School boundaries can and do change — always confirm your specific address using the FCPS School Locator before purchasing.
-
Many homes in Sully Station were built during the polybutylene pipe era (roughly 1978–1995), and some still have original gray plastic PB supply lines. Polybutylene is prone to cracking and failure, and some insurers flag or exclude coverage for homes with it present. Not every home in the community has it — many have been re-piped over the years — but buyers should specifically ask their inspector to identify the supply line material and get a re-pipe estimate if PB is found before waiving the inspection contingency.
-
Sully Station (sometimes called "Sully Station I") was built primarily between 1988 and 1995, while Sully Station II was developed later in the mid-to-late 1990s with slightly larger floor plans and a more updated build standard. Both are governed by separate community associations with their own fee structures and amenity sets. They share the same general Centreville location and school pyramid but are distinct communities — buyers should tour and compare both before deciding, as price points and condition profiles differ.
-
By car, Sully Station to Tysons Corner takes approximately 25–40 minutes via Route 28 North to the Dulles Toll Road during typical peak hours — though that estimate climbs significantly on high-congestion days. The commute to downtown DC via I-66 runs roughly 45–75 minutes depending on traffic and time of day. OmniRide and Fairfax Connector bus routes provide commuter options, and the Ashburn Silver Line station — accessible via Route 28 — offers a Metro alternative for DC-bound commuters willing to park and ride.
-
Sully Station is approximately 25–30 miles from Washington, DC. The primary commuter routes are I-66 eastbound and Route 28 connecting to the Dulles Toll Road. Drive times typically range from 45 to 75 minutes depending on traffic conditions and time of day. Buyers who commute daily to DC should test the route during peak morning hours before purchasing — weekend tours do not reflect true rush-hour conditions on these corridors.
-
Sully Station is primarily a community of townhomes and single-family homes — traditional condominium buildings are not part of the community's housing stock. Buyers seeking condos near Centreville will find more options in the Fair Lakes area or in communities closer to the Dulles Toll Road corridor. If a townhome or detached home fits your lifestyle, Sully Station offers a strong range of both at varied price points. Connect with our team to explore current inventory.
-
Typical seller costs in Sully Station include agent commissions, Virginia Grantor's Tax (based on sale price), title and settlement fees, HOA resale disclosure fees, any agreed-upon repair credits or closing cost concessions, and prorated property taxes. Total seller-side closing costs commonly range from 6%–9% of sale price depending on commission structure and negotiated concessions — but can be meaningfully lower with our Flexible Commission Program. Use our Seller Net Sheet for a detailed estimate specific to your home.
-
Sully Station has demonstrated consistent buyer demand over multiple market cycles, driven by its established reputation, school pyramid, and location within Fairfax County's employment corridor. As with any real estate investment, past performance does not guarantee future appreciation — and individual outcomes depend heavily on purchase price, condition at acquisition, and holding period. Buyers looking to maximize long-term equity should focus on buying at or below market value, addressing deferred mechanicals upfront, and avoiding overpaying in competitive bid situations. No outcome is guaranteed; consult with a financial advisor for investment-specific guidance.
-

What's Moving in Sully Station Right Now
Non-numeric, qualitative observations from active buyer and seller activity in Sully Station and the broader Centreville corridor — updated regularly.
Townhome Demand Outpacing Single-Family Absorption
In the current rate environment, buyers who might have stretched for a detached home two years ago are now targeting Sully Station's townhome inventory with notable urgency. Well-presented townhomes with updated interiors are moving faster than comparable detached homes — a reversal of the pre-2023 pattern that sellers should factor into their pricing strategy.
Re-Piped Homes Are Becoming a Listing Differentiator
Sellers who have proactively replaced polybutylene supply lines with PEX or copper are consistently reporting cleaner inspection negotiations and fewer post-inspection credit demands. In a community where PB pipe is common knowledge among experienced buyers and their agents, documented re-pipes are increasingly functioning as a marketing asset — not just a compliance item.
Westfield Pyramid Continues to Pull Fairfax Relocators
Families relocating from Loudoun County, Prince William County, and further west continue to identify the Westfield High School pyramid as a primary driver of their Centreville search. Sully Station offers access to this pyramid at price points that are increasingly competitive compared to neighboring communities, and buyer agents are actively steering school-focused clients to this community.
Dulles Corridor Employers Driving Consistent Inbound Demand
The concentration of defense, technology, and government contracting employers along the Route 28 and Dulles Toll Road corridor continues to generate a stable pipeline of relocation buyers targeting Centreville. Sully Station's position close to this employment spine — without the Loudoun County price premium — is keeping absorption rates relatively healthy even during broader market slowdowns.
Updated Mechanicals Are the Clearest Pricing Lever Available to Sellers Right Now
Buyers in Sully Station are increasingly sophisticated about build-era risks — and they're discounting aggressively for homes with original HVAC systems, aging roofs, or unresolved plumbing concerns. Conversely, sellers with documented recent replacements of these systems are commanding meaningful premiums over comparables that remain deferred. In this specific market, proof of mechanical health is translating more directly into net proceeds than almost any cosmetic upgrade.

Fast Facts
Sully Station at a Glance: Quick Answers
Specific, honest answers to the most common Sully Station questions — designed for buyers and sellers who want facts, not filler.
What zip code is Sully Station in?
Sully Station is located in Centreville, Virginia, zip code 20120. The community sits in western Fairfax County, near the intersection of Route 28 (Centreville Road) and Stone Road. Some fringe addresses may use the 20121 zip code — always confirm your specific property address when verifying services or school assignments.
When was Sully Station built?
Sully Station was developed primarily between 1988 and 1995, placing it firmly in the late-builder colonial and contemporary-style era common throughout Fairfax County's western expansion. The build era matters for buyers: homes from this period may have polybutylene plumbing, aging HVAC systems, and original roofs that are on their second or third replacement cycle.
How many homes are in Sully Station?
Sully Station contains approximately 3,200 homes across multiple residential sections. The community includes a mix of townhomes and single-family detached homes. Note that Sully Station II is a separate, adjacent community governed by its own HOA — the two are often searched together but are distinct in builder vintage, floor plans, and fee structures.
Does Sully Station have a pool?
Yes. Sully Station has three outdoor community pools, open seasonally under the management of the Sully Station Community Association. The pools offer structured swim programs as well as open recreational swim for residents. Pool access is included with HOA membership — no separate fee for residents. Hours and registration details are managed by the association directly.
How far is Sully Station from Dulles Airport?
Dulles International Airport (IAD) is approximately 8–10 miles north of Sully Station via Route 28 North to the Dulles Access Road. Drive time is typically 15–20 minutes outside peak hours, making Sully Station one of the more convenient communities in Fairfax County for frequent travelers. Note that this proximity also places some Sully Station streets under Dulles approach and departure corridors.
Is there a gym or fitness center in Sully Station?
There is no on-site fitness center within the Sully Station community association's amenity set. Residents typically use commercial gyms in the Chantilly and Centreville corridor — several Sport & Health, LA Fitness, and other fitness options are within a 10–15 minute drive. The community's trail network and outdoor courts serve as the primary active amenities.
What grocery stores are closest to Sully Station?
The nearest major grocery options are Giant Food at Greenbriar Town Center (approximately 6–10 minutes), Wegmans on Stonecroft Boulevard in Chantilly (approximately 8–12 minutes), and Whole Foods at Fair Lakes Shopping Center (approximately 10–15 minutes). The Sully Square Shopping Center nearby also has convenience retail. All drive-time estimates are off-peak and subject to Route 28 traffic conditions.
Is Sully Station gated or have a security entrance?
Sully Station is not a gated community. All residential streets are accessible without a security entrance or access code. The community association focuses its amenity investment on pools, courts, trails, and common area maintenance rather than gated access. Buyers seeking a gated community in western Fairfax County will need to explore other options in the region.
Can you walk to restaurants or shops from Sully Station?
Sully Station is not a walkable community by standard urban metrics. Retail and dining destinations — including the Greenbriar Town Center corridor and Stone Road Plaza nearby — require a short drive of 5–15 minutes. The internal trail network is excellent for recreation, but everyday errands are car-dependent. Buyers prioritizing walkability should evaluate whether Sully Station's other strengths offset this tradeoff.
What bus or transit routes serve Sully Station?
OmniRide operates express commuter bus service to Pentagon and DC-area destinations from stops accessible near Sully Station. Fairfax Connector provides local route connections to Silver Line Metro stations at Herndon and Reston Town Center. Neither service operates inside the subdivision itself — residents drive to nearby stops or park-and-ride facilities on Route 28 or Stone Road.
How does Sully Station compare to nearby Virginia Run?
Both communities are established Centreville subdivisions with pools, trails, and strong Fairfax County school access. Virginia Run skews more single-family and is positioned closer to I-66, while Sully Station has a larger townhome inventory and sits slightly closer to Route 28 and Dulles. Price points overlap significantly — the better fit depends on home type preference, commute direction, and specific section. We can compare them side by side for your specific criteria.
Is Sully Station a good place to buy right now — or should I wait?
There is no universal answer — it depends entirely on your financial position, timeline, and how long you plan to hold. What we can say specifically about Sully Station: the community has demonstrated consistent absorption across multiple market cycles; the Westfield High School pyramid sustains family-driven demand; and the build era creates both pricing opportunity (deferred mechanicals mean discount leverage) and risk (if you don't know what to look for). Whether now is right for you depends on rate sensitivity, down payment position, and how competitive you need to be in this specific price band.

Experience & Results
What Other Buyers & Sellers Have Experienced in Fairfax County
Real outcomes — anonymized to protect client privacy. These examples reflect the kind of work we do for buyers and sellers in the Centreville and broader Fairfax County market.
Townhome Near Bull Run Regional Park, Centreville Corridor
A relocating family from Northern California was navigating the Centreville market remotely, competing against buyers who had toured in person. Their priorities: Westfield HS pyramid, garage, and a finished basement — within a defined budget that excluded most single-family homes in the area.
Single-Family Home, Established Section, Fairfax County
A long-time Sully Station homeowner had been deferring maintenance for several years and was concerned about buyer inspection negotiations eroding their net proceeds. Their goal was a clean contract with minimal post-inspection credit requests.
We'd heard the Centreville market was competitive and that Sully Station specifically moves fast. What we didn't expect was how much the right agent preparation changed our experience. They knew which streets had the plumbing issue, which sections backed to trails, and exactly where our offer needed to land to be competitive without overpaying. We closed in three weeks. We'd been searching for four months before we called them.
