Formed around the early-19th-century Chantilly plantation, Chantilly grew into a suburban community in western Fairfax County, on Northern Virginia’s rolling Piedmont. The area lies near Washington Dulles International Airport and along U.S. Route 50, a major east–west corridor within the Washington metropolitan area. Sully Historic Site preserves the 1794 home of Richard Bland Lee and recalls the region’s Federal-era estate life. Chantilly also lends its name to the Civil War’s 1862 Battle of Chantilly, commemorated at nearby Ox Hill Battlefield Park.
