The historic community of Hollin Hills comprises approximately 450 mid-century modern homes designed and built by architect Charles Goodman and developer Robert Davenport. The homes are characterized by their large private wooded lots, sleek lines, and blending of interior and exterior vistas with their distinctive walls of windows. This close-knit community offers something for everyone from a garden club to the supper society. Annual events such as the Fall potluck, the 4th of July picnic, Holiday caroling, and the bi-annual Hollin Hills House and Garden Tour bring together young and old alike and help to make this such a special place to live. The neighborhood was added to the National Register of Historic Places in September 2013. This provides formal recognition of the historic architecture and community planning of Goodman and Davenport and identifies nearly 475 contributing historic structures including this house

Hollin Hills is a neighborhood with covenants that govern your property and is also a Fairfax County Overlay District. Any exterior modifications of your home will require approval from the Design Review Committee and, if permits are required, also the Fairfax County Architectural Review Board. For more information and copies of the covenants and DRC Guidelines, check out the Hollin Hills website.
