The community is one of the larger planned communities in Northern VA, and has been recognized by different organizations as one of the best places to live in the area.

It was constructed with nature in mind, and filled with amenities, both HOA sponsored and outside organizations.

The community was built by a collection of builders, some finished large portions of the community and others a smaller section.

Some of the builders that constructed homes here are WM Berry, Van Metre, US Homes, Tipco, Southern Engineering, Ryland Homes, Ryan Homes, Pulte, Poretsky & Starr, NV Homes, Globe, George Darne & Sons, Costain, Corbett, Centex, Batal and others.

Neighborhoods & Clusters

Here are the 5 neighborhoods, the clusters listed in each and what types of homes you can expect to find in each cluster.

Each cluster and neighborhood have their own organized structure within the HOA, and have committees that are elected every 2 years.

1. Commons Neighborhood Clusters

This neighborhood is comprised of townhomes, condos and apartments, and occupies the area between the VRE and the Burke Town Center.

Oakwood/Bridgetown Commons

This cluster features 3 level townhome style condos. There are ample green spaces and many of the homes are end units.

The condo fees here have also typically included water.

Burke Station Commons

This cluster of homes is unique, both for Burke Centre and the rest of Northern VA. These units are co-op ownership, some of the only ones in the area.

They are built like a low rise condo, however instead of owning the unit, each owner buys into a corporate entity that owns the community. There is a blanket mortgage that the company holds and is reflected in the fees.

Co-op ownership is different than other types, so before diving in make sure you know what exactly you will be owning. More typical in Northern VA is condo ownership, where you own the interior of your unit.

Burkshire Commons

Burkshire Commons (formerly Chase Commons) contains apartments in a wooded area of Burke. There are no units for sale in this cluster.

Scarborough Commons

This is a cluster of 3 level townhomes with a basement, most of them with nice large rec rooms in the basement.

This community is also walkable via trails to Burke Town Center, which has several stores, grocery and a large department store.

Seville Commons

Seville Commons is another townhome community walkable to Burke Town Center.

This is a small cluster of both 2 and 3 level townhomes. These townhomes tend to be very popular and sell quickly, one of the big reasons is that they have attached garages.
