About Poplar Tree Estates
Poplar Tree Estates is a mature, single-family-detached community in central Chantilly. The neighborhood was built primarily in the late 1970s through the 1980s, with the bulk of homes on quarter-acre-plus lots with full-grown trees, garages, and traditional Northern Virginia colonial and split-level architecture. The community has been a steady seller for decades — buyers come for the schools, the lot sizes, and the location.
