Centreville, VA Homes For Sale
One of the most obvious things about homes for sale in the Washington metropolitan area is the wide diversity of inventory from one community to the next. It often seems like a case of feast or famine. In Centreville, Virginia, you’ll feast—there are literally hundreds of active listings at the present time. Why is this? There are two main reasons. First, with 12 square miles of land there is still room to develop. And second, contractors have been going absolutely nuts building new custom homes.
Centreville is located in Fairfax County, about 20 miles west of the District of Columbia. There are over 71,000 residents in this popular commuter suburb and in 2012, it was ranked No. 15 in CNN Money’s top 100 best small cities to live in. The area dates back to the 1700s but didn’t go through a major growth surge until the modern era. The emergence of the tech sector in recent years has spurred a continued demand for new housing.
