Quick answer

The median single-family home with a Purcellville address sold for $920,000 in 2026, or $352 a square foot, after a median six days on the market, and one house buyer in five paid cash.

Purcellville is an incorporated town in western Loudoun County with its own real estate tax. A "Purcellville, VA" address (zip 20132) covers more than the town: it reaches into the farms and countryside around it, where only the county tax applies. This page covers the whole Purcellville mailing area: what a house or townhouse costs, how buyers pay, what it rents for, which schools serve it, the commute, and which addresses pay the town tax. Every number is from Bright MLS closed sales, pulled on October 4, 2026, not from a listing site's estimate.

Why people choose Purcellville

A small town, lower-priced townhouses, and cash on 24 of 122 sales.

A small-town Main Street and room around the house; townhouses at a median $584,000, against $700,000 in Leesburg; cash on 24 of the 122 house sales; and acreage and estates past the town line, up to $3,250,000.

Buyers choose Purcellville over Leesburg for about $220,000 less at the median and a quieter town, and accept 15 to 25 minutes more each way on the drive east. They choose it over Round Hill or Lovettsville, though it costs $70,000 more at the median ($920,000 against $850,000), for the shops, restaurants and townhouses in town. Inside the town they pay the town tax and get town services; outside it, they pay only the county. If you are torn, decide on the commute and the high school first; the price follows.

Prices

$920,000 for the median Purcellville house in 2026, and $584,000 for the median townhouse.

The median Purcellville house cost $220,000 less than in Leesburg ($1,140,000) and $70,000 more than in Round Hill or Lovettsville ($850,000). Per square foot the gap with Leesburg is smaller: $352 against $373.

Houses. 122 houses sold, from $425,001 (the lowest sale) to $3,250,000 (the highest), and 52 of them (43%) sold for $1 million or more. The median house had about 2,800 square feet above ground on 0.8 acres. 35% sold above asking, a smaller share than in Leesburg (45.5%) or Sterling (53.2%), and 54% went under contract within a week. The median house spent six days on the market, about the same as Round Hill (5) and far less than Lovettsville (16.5).

Townhouses. 30 sold at a median of $584,000, from $378,000 (the lowest sale) to $705,050 (the highest), or $273 a square foot. That is $116,000 less than in Leesburg ($700,000, $314 a square foot) and $8,500 less than in Sterling ($592,500). 13 of the 30 sold above asking, and the median townhouse spent seven days on the market.

Against the county. Aldie ($1,348,862), Brambleton ($1,204,938), Hamilton ($1,200,000), Ashburn ($1,186,700), Leesburg and South Riding ($1,140,000) and Broadlands ($1,127,180) cost more. Round Hill and Lovettsville ($850,000) and Sterling ($780,000) cost less.

Bright MLS closed sales in Loudoun County, January 1 to October 2, 2026 (October 4 for the eight smaller towns), detached houses with 3+ bedrooms and 2+ full baths, condo-owned homes left out. Brambleton and Broadlands are their own postal cities, so Ashburn here leaves them out. South Riding (20152) is the Loudoun side of the Chantilly mailing address, nearly all of it South Riding. Hamilton, Purcellville, Round Hill, Lovettsville, Waterford and Middleburg are western Loudoun; Middleburg means the Loudoun County side of its address only. Lansdowne and Cascades are communities selected by zip code and subdivision name inside the Leesburg (20176) and Sterling (20165) addresses, so their sales overlap those rows. Upperville, Bluemont, Hillsboro and the other small places have too few sales to chart.

The average house, $1,134,174, sits well above the median because the top of the market pulls it up: 4 houses sold for $2.5 million or more, up to $3,250,000. One house went for $1,372,236 in cash against a $1,195,000 asking price, 115% of list, likely after a bidding war; another, listed at $1,595,000, closed at $1,400,000 (88%) after 263 days on the market. 13 houses spent 0 or 1 days on the market, likely new construction or homes sold before they reached the open market. In all, 128 detached houses and 30 townhouses closed with a Purcellville address in 2026; the 6 houses that fell outside the bedroom, bath or condominium filters are left out of the house numbers.

Follow the money

24 of 122 Purcellville house buyers paid cash, and 10 of them bought at $1.41 million or more.

In 2026, cash buyers spent $31.0 million of the $138.4 million paid for Purcellville houses, 22.4% of the dollars. Their median house was $1,237,500 against $907,500 financed. The cash share of houses, 19.7%, is larger than in Leesburg (13.2%), Ashburn (16.9%), Round Hill (12.9%), Lovettsville (11.8%) or Hamilton (10.4%).

Share of house sales paid in cash, by price, 2026

  1. Under $800K13%4 of 30
  2. $800K to $920K14%4 of 29
  3. $920K to $1.41M19%6 of 32
  4. $1.41M and up32%10 of 31

Under $800,000 13% (4 of 30); $800,000 to $920,000 14% (4 of 29); $920,000 to $1.41 million 19% (6 of 32); $1.41 million and up 32% (10 of 31).

The cash share more than doubles from the bottom price quarter of houses to the top one, where nearly one buyer in three paid cash. 2 of the 4 houses that sold for $2.5 million or more were cash purchases, on estates of 15 to 24 acres. In eastern Loudoun far fewer house buyers pay cash: 4.8% in Brambleton and 2.2% in Broadlands.

How 122 Purcellville house purchases were paid for, 2026

122 house sales: conventional 81 · cash 24 · VA 13 · FHA and other 4

Conventional loan 66%Cash 20%VA loan 11%FHA and other 3%

About one house buyer in ten used a VA loan, 13 of 122, close to Leesburg's share (45 of 433). The less common loan types were 3 FHA and 1 that combined FHA and VA financing.

What that means if you need a loan: in the lower half of the market, up to about $920,000, about one competing buyer in seven pays cash, 8 of 59 sales. At $1.41 million and up nearly one in three does, so a financed offer there needs a full pre-approval, a short inspection window and an appraisal-gap plan (how much extra cash you will put in if the appraisal comes in below your offer) that you decided before the showing. On a country lot, build in time for the well and septic inspections and tell the seller up front.

Townhouses: 5 of 30 buyers also paid cash, 16.7%, and 13 of 30 townhouses sold above asking.

The interesting facts

30 townhouses sold in Purcellville, against 12 in Round Hill, Lovettsville and Hamilton combined.

Four things in the 2026 numbers that set Purcellville apart.

43%Of houses sold for $1 million or more, 52 of 122
30Townhouses sold, at a median of $584,000
$425K to $3.25MLowest and highest house sale of 2026
31Townhomes rented, against 14 houses

Check the town line, not the zip. The Town of Purcellville adds its own real estate tax, but the Purcellville mailing address reaches well beyond the town into the countryside, where only the county tax applies. Hillsboro shares the 20132 zip but is counted on its own (18 house sales in 2026, counted with no bedroom or bath filter). The tax record, not the zip, tells you which side a house is on.

A real townhouse market. Western Loudoun is mostly houses: Round Hill had 7 townhouse sales in 2026, Lovettsville 3 and Hamilton 2. Purcellville had 30, at a median of $584,000 and $273 a square foot, and 31 townhome leases at $3,350, so a townhouse is a real way to start out here.

A million-dollar market, bid with care. 52 of the 122 houses sold for $1 million or more, against 34 of 93 in Round Hill, 20 of 68 in Lovettsville and 27 of 48 in Hamilton. Buyers bid, but not wildly: on average houses sold at 100.0% of the asking price, and 35% went over asking, against 45.5% in Leesburg. Ask Ahmed for street-level comparable sales before you price an offer.

Rent or buy

A Purcellville house sells for 19.0 times its yearly rent, a townhouse for 14.5.

A Purcellville house rents for a median of $4,025 a month and sells for $920,000, a price-to-rent ratio of 19.0; a townhome rents for $3,350 and sells for $584,000, a ratio of 14.5.1

Rent range, lowest to highest lease$2,600 to $5,000$1,900 to $4,000

Gross yield is a year's rent divided by the price, before the mortgage, tax, HOA, insurance and upkeep. A ratio near 20 is close to the line where renting and buying cost about the same over a few years, and buying a Purcellville house is better value against rent than in Leesburg (22.4). But 14 house leases is a small sample, from $2,600 to $5,000 a month, and one or two leases can move that median. A townhouse at 14.5 is a clearer case for buying if you plan to stay; Leesburg townhouses sell for 17.9 times their rent. Townhome leases ran from $1,900 to $4,000 a month.

Own in Purcellville already? Houses sold in a median six days this year, and one buyer in five paid cash. Ahmed runs a real comparative analysis against the 152 sales on this page, town against countryside, not a website estimate.

The houses

Hirst Farm's 2000s colonials, Mayfair's newer houses, and farms past the town line.

Main Street and 21st Street, where the W&OD Trail ends, are the center of town. Subdivisions from the 2000s and 2010s sit around it, and farms and country houses with Purcellville addresses spread out past the town line.

Main Street and the town center. Older houses sit on the streets off Main Street and 21st Street, a walk from the restaurants and the trail. On an older house, ask the age of the roof, windows and systems.

Hirst Farm. Built mainly from 2000 to 2009: center-hall colonials, many with four to six bedrooms, on lots of about a quarter to half an acre.

Mayfair. Houses built from 2016 to 2019, with walking trails, a tot lot, a picnic pavilion and a sport court.

Townhouses. 30 sold in 2026, from $378,000 (the lowest sale) to $705,050 (the highest), at a median of $584,000, close to Sterling's $592,500.

The countryside. Past the town line, a Purcellville address can mean a farmhouse, acreage or an estate; the top house sale in 2026 was $3,250,000. Ask whether the house is on a private well and septic system, and have both inspected.

What to check. Whether the address is inside the town on the tax record; the HOA resale package with dues and any special assessment; the well and septic on a country lot; and the drive at 7:30 am.

Schools

Loudoun Valley High, #44 in Virginia (US News), and Woodgrove High serve Purcellville.

All of Purcellville is Loudoun County Public Schools, inside the town or out. Both high schools have Purcellville addresses, and which one serves a house depends on the address; the middle schools are Blue Ridge Middle and Harmony Middle in Hamilton.3

The town line has nothing to do with school assignment: LCPS draws its boundaries by address across the county. Check any address at the LCPS school locator, and ask Ahmed to confirm it before you offer.

Commute

Route 7 to Leesburg, then the Greenway, or a commuter bus from the Harmony Park and Ride in Hamilton.

Route 7 is the main road out: it bypasses the town and runs east to Leesburg, where the Dulles Greenway, a private toll road, continues to Dulles Airport and the Toll Road. Loudoun County Transit's commuter Route 483 starts at the Harmony Park and Ride in Hamilton, a few miles east, and the Silver Line's Ashburn station is the nearest Metro.

Weekday at 8 am from Main Street in Purcellville. From a country address farther out in 20132, add a few minutes. Drive times are estimates; the low end is a normal day, the high end a bad one.6

Daily life

The end of the W&OD Trail, 21st Street's restaurants, and a halal butcher 20 minutes east.

Outdoors and sights. The W&OD Trail ends in Purcellville by the old train station on 21st Street. Franklin Park, near the town, has fishing and room to walk. Wineries, breweries and farms surround the town; Catoctin Creek Distilling on West Main Street, founded in 2009, was the first legal distillery in Loudoun County since before Prohibition, and Belly Love Brewing is in the Shoppes at Main and Maple.

Food and groceries. North 21st Street has the sit-down restaurants: Monk's BBQ, Magnolias at the Mill and Bia Kitchen. For halal meat and groceries, Eastern World Market on East Market Street in Leesburg is about 20 minutes east, on the same street as two all-halal kitchens, Taste of Lebanon and Red Kabob.

Taxes, inside the Town of Purcellville.4 Loudoun County's $0.805 per $100 of assessed value plus the town's $0.242, about $1.05 all in: roughly $9,600 a year on a $920,000 house, or $6,100 on a $584,000 townhouse. On cars, the town adds $1.05 per $100 to the county's $3.09.

Taxes, outside the town. Purcellville addresses outside the town limits pay only the county: roughly $7,400 a year on a $920,000 house, or $4,700 on a $584,000 townhouse, before HOA dues, and $3.09 per $100 on cars. Ask Ahmed to check the tax record before you offer.

Where to eat

Best restaurants in Purcellville, VA: Ahmed's list (2026)

"Ahmed, where do you go to eat?" The Purcellville list.

Updated

Up to five picks in each cuisine, the one doing best at the top, and halal marked. Purcellville's own restaurants are on 21st Street and Main Street; for halal and Middle Eastern food the nearest good picks are in Leesburg, about 20 minutes east on Route 7.7

Closed, so not listed: Mediter Rustic Cuisine on Purcellville Gateway Drive shows as closed on Yelp, and 5 Tara Authentic Indian Cuisine in Leesburg shows as closed in 2026. Rankings weigh current Yelp ratings by review count, critics' lists and whether the place is busy; the halal note comes from Zabihah, Yelp or the restaurant itself, and "ask about halal" means it could not be confirmed.

Is the median price what a home in Purcellville will cost?

No. The median is the middle sale of 2026, not a set price: half the single-family houses sold for more and half for less. In Purcellville they sold from $425,001 to $3,250,000. Use the median to get a feel for the market, then look at homes on both sides of it.

How competitive is the Purcellville housing market?

Houses sell fast, mostly close to the asking price: the median Purcellville house spent 6 days on the market in 2026, about the same as Round Hill (5) and far less than Lovettsville (16.5). 54% went under contract within a week and 35% sold above asking, against 45.5% in Leesburg, and the average sale price was 100.0% of the asking price. One house buyer in five paid cash, so ask for street-level comparable sales before you price an offer.

Cash rises with price: 4 of 30 houses under $800,000 sold for cash, against 10 of 31 at $1.41 million and up. 5 of 30 townhouse buyers also paid cash (16.7%).
