17571 Graham St Unit A

Chartered in 1749, Dumfries holds the distinction of being the oldest continuously chartered town in Virginia, a title that carries real weight along its tree-lined Main Street where history and everyday life coexist naturally. Sitting about 30 miles south of Washington, D.C., and roughly 70 miles north of Richmond, the town occupies a position that gives residents access to two major metros without the pace of either. Marine Corps Base Quantico is a defining presence nearby, anchoring much of the local economy and drawing a steady stream of residents connected to defense, federal contracting, and government service.

Despite covering just 1.6 square miles, Dumfries manages a notable range of housing options. Renters will find apartment communities offering one- and two-bedroom layouts alongside townhome-style rentals that suit those wanting a bit more space. The surrounding Prince William County area adds depth, with communities like Triangle and Montclair just outside town limits.
