The city of Bealeton is located in northern Virginia, approximately 55 miles southwest of Washington, D.C., and 62 miles northeast of Charlottesville, Va. The city is situated in Fauquier County, which has a thriving population of 66,000. Bealeton apartments for rent offer attractive options for someone looking to live in a tight-knit community in a historic area.
Bealeton's location is one of its key attributes, as it is at the intersection of State Route 28 and U.S. Route 17. The Warrenton-Fauquier Airport sits just east of the city, providing convenient air travel options to all residents and visitors.
The Bealeton area has a history dating back more than three-and-a-half centuries, when it was originally inhabited by Native American tribes before the arrival of European explorers and settlers. The city played an instrumental role in the Revolutionary and American Civil wars, and most recently it has seen substantial growth primarily due to its natural beauty and superb location.
Today, Bealeton offers a respite from the busy Washington, D.C. area. Its residents take advantage of living among picturesque rolling hills in Virginia's wine and hunting county. The most common industry in the area is construction, while more than 18,500 acres in the county are dedicated for use for farming. In addition, the surrounding area encompasses hundreds of acres of parks and green space.
Those living in Bealeton rentals and visitors alike have much to enjoy. History buffs and lovers of the outdoors enjoy the John Marshall Birthplace Park. Named for the Honorable Supreme Court Justice John Marshall, the park offers a quarter-mile hiking trail that meanders alongside a stream, a monument and picnic facilities.
