Overview

McLean is the anchor of Northern Virginia luxury real estate — a leafy, high-income enclave minutes from Washington, D.C., Tysons, and the CIA. It blends estate properties, custom new construction, and established neighborhoods with some of the region’s strongest long-term equity growth.

• Custom new-construction estates continue to command premiums over $3M.
• Long-tenured owners hold significant untapped equity — a strong seller market.
• Lot value is a major driver; teardown-and-rebuild activity remains high.

Schools

Served by highly rated Fairfax County Public Schools including Langley and McLean High School pyramids, plus premier private institutions.
