The Vienna Alternative

Oakton (22124) is the hidden gem of Fairfax County. Nestled between the bustling downtown of Vienna and the employment hub of Reston, it offers a lifestyle defined by space and nature.

Buyers often come to Oakton after looking in Vienna and realizing they want more land. In Vienna, $1.5M might get you a renovated home on 0.25 acres. In Oakton, that same budget often secures a larger colonial on a 1-acre wooded lot with a swimming pool. It is the perfect balance of "country feel" with "city access."

Jamil Brothers Insight

The "Commuter" Sweet Spot

"Oakton is unique because it lacks a centralized 'downtown' but surrounds the Vienna Metro Station. Neighborhoods along the southern edge of Oakton (near I-66) are some of the most commutable locations in Northern Virginia. You can live on a quiet cul-de-sac and be on the Orange Line platform in 8 minutes. That is rare."
