Houses for Sale in Bristow, VA

Bristow is one of Prince William County's unincorporated communities in Northern Virginia. It's approximately 30 miles away from Washington D.C. and is home to the famous outdoor concert arena Jiffy Lube Live. Because of its reasonable commuting time to and from D.C. and more affordable homes in Bristow compared to other areas near D.C., houses for sale in Bristow, VA, are highly desirable.

Bristow History

A large part of what is now Bristow was part of the Ford plantation owned by John Tyler Linton and his family during the 1800s. His daughter, Sarah Linton, donated the land in 1894 to the Roman Catholic Church when she converted to Catholicism. She became a Benedictine nun and the donated land was used to build schools for poor children. In 1922, the Linton Hall Military School was founded, but this was changed to a coeducational school in 1989 after the school stopped its boarding and military programs.

Bristow also has history from the Civil War, such as the Battle of Bristoe Station in October 1863. This took place during the “Bristoe Campaign,” which was a series of minor battles between Union and Confederate units. General Lee had attacked Union troops at Bristoe Station but suffered heavy losses. The Confederates had destroyed much of the Alexandria and Orange Railroad and it wasn't until the Union troops reoccupied Bristoe Station that repairs were able to be made.

Things To Do In Bristow

Bristow has a wide variety of things to do and places to visit, from its Jiffy Lube Live center to its historic parks.

Bristoe Station Battlefield Heritage Park

Considered to be hallowed ground, this historic park saw two important battles during the Civil War. The first was the Battle of Kettle Run, which occurred in 1862, and the Battle of Bristoe Station in 1863. The park is spread over 133 acres and is preserved by Prince William County. You can enjoy guided tours from May through October, or just enjoy the beautiful trails from sunrise to sunset.

Brentsville Courthouse Historic Centre

Spread across 28 acres, this site is home to several historic buildings, which include a courthouse and jail from 1822, an 1850s farmhouse, an 1880s church, a one-room schoolhouse from 1928 that served Brentsville’s young children from 1929 to 1944, and the Brentsville Tavern archeology site.

The area once served as the seat of Prince William County and was a hub of activity more than 75 years ago. It is also reputed to be a haunted historic center and was once featured on the popular show Ghost Hunters. Apparitions and knocking sounds have been reported in the jailhouse and some claim to have seen ghostly figures in the windows of the old courthouse.

Paranormal Places of Interest

Do you love haunted sites? If you buy a house for sale in Bristow, VA, you will find there are plenty of creepy places to go ghost hunting in Prince William County. We've already mentioned the Brentsville Courthouse Historic Centre, so here are some other well-known haunts to visit:

Weems-Botts Museum – considered to be the second-most-haunted home in all of Virginia, the museum has had reports of hauntings from Civil War soldiers in the nearby cemeteries and park, and the voice of a small child who haunts the house.

Ben Lomond Historic Site – many odd occurrences have been reported here, including phantom footfalls, closing doors, and objects that seem to move to different places. It was once the site of a hospital during the Civil War and a home for many enslaved people. Locals say the grounds and the house are haunted by these spirits from the past.

Historic Occoquan – this quaint little town has walking ghost tours throughout the year and it's reported that a person’s face is often seen in a local restaurant's bathroom mirror, a young man's ghost visits a busy street corner, and one store owner has had their shop’s merchandise thrown around.

The Winery at La Grange – the home and property on this site have a rich history, including many reports of ghost sightings. From the home's piano playing on its own to the spirit of a little girl haunting an upstairs bedroom, the staff will leave a glass of wine out to appease the spirits.

Jiffy Lube Live

This large outdoor stage has been hosting live entertainment for over a decade in a variety of genres, including rock, pop, country and rap. It seats 10,000 in the pavilion and an extra 15,000 on its lawn areas. Shows run from May through October and the stage sees around 650 concerts throughout the year, including the popular WMZQ Fall Festival.

Vertical Rock

If you want to try rock climbing in a safe environment, this is the place for you. Vertical Rock has rock climbing walls for all ages and experience levels as well as their own fitness center. They teach courses from beginners to advanced crag climbers and have a number of youth programs and camps. The fitness center hosts a number of exercise programs from yoga to pilates.

Prince William County

Bristow is part of Prince William County, which was once home to the Doeg Native American tribe. It was also the first place that non-Native Americans set foot in 1608, when English explorers led by John Smith explored the area. The area was named after the third son of England's King George II in 1731 and originally included what today is known as:

  • Fairfax
  • Arlington
  • Loudoun
  • Fauquier

And what are now the independent cities of:

  • Falls Church
  • Alexandria
  • Fairfax
  • Manassas
  • Manassas Park

There's an entire range of ecosystems to be discovered, with thousands of areas of green open spaces, parklands, and a shoreline that runs for 48 miles. 

Real Estate Taxes in Bristow

Your tax payment will depend on what county and city you live in. In Prince William County, the county-wide tax rate and district rate are set annually. The funds from these taxes are used to support the area's public services, like emergency volunteer operations, programs for stormwater management, and waste management. Tax rates are calculated per 100 dollars of assessed value. For example, if the value of your Bristow home was $300,000 and the tax rate was $1.2075 per 100 dollars, you would pay $3,622.50 per year.
