Bull Run Mountain Estates offers resort-style living and seclusion
It was over 70 years ago that folks first started escaping to the Bull Run Mountains, constructing vacation and weekend homes hidden among the trees. Fed up with urban turmoil and traffic, professionals turned westward, traded in their sensible sedans for four-by-fours and began building contemporary family homes. They were all seeking privacy, natural beauty and outdoor living—and they found it at Bull Run Mountain Estates. "Bull Run Mountain Estates gives people an affordable resort lifestyle," says Natalie McArtor, an Associate Broker with Samson Properties in Prince William County. "It's secluded, but it's right off Route 15, which means amenities like shopping, golfing and wineries and breweries are close."

Eclectic mix of mountain estates, cabins and other housing styles
With some lots nearly 1,300 feet above sea level, Bull Run Mountain Estate offers an eagle-eye view of the surrounding countryside through blankets of lush foliage. Narrow, winding roads twist up the mountainside, lined with an eclectic array of homes as if to announce that cookie-cutter blueprints have no place here. With a range of ages, sizes and lot characteristics, homes start at $400,000 and go up to $1 million and more. At the base of the mountain, you can get a 1970s split-level with 1,600 square feet, three bedrooms and a flat half-acre lot for $550,000, or move up the mountain for an 1980s wooden A-frame, with three bedrooms, 1,600 square feet and over an acre of land priced in the low-$400,000s. A modern Colonial built into the mountainside with four bedrooms, 2,400 square feet and sunset views to die for comes in around $650,000.

The community rallies together during severe winter weather
Some might say the downside of this idyllic mountainside retreat would be the steep roads, cell service sometimes going out, and trees falling when the weather hits. However, that's what keeps this community close. Whether loaning a backup generator or clearing trees, people help people here, and that's something money can't buy. An active civic association also keeps life running smoothly, managing everything from road concerns to a community center that houses meetings and events.
Fishing and hiking at Silver Lake Regional Park, plus nearby golfing
