KONAHReal estate photography in Centreville & Chantilly, VA.
Centreville and Chantilly fill the corner of Fairfax County where I-66, Route 28 and Route 29 come together, just south of Dulles. Most of the housing went up from the 1970s through the 2000s: townhome communities, single-family neighborhoods and condos, with a few older buildings around Centreville's original crossroads and bigger lots out toward Bull Run. The Dulles ring covers one side of the area and not the other, so the address sets the drone plan.
Around Centreville and Chantilly.
Townhomes that look alike on paper.
A lot of Centreville and Chantilly listings are townhomes from the 1980s to the 2000s, and on the MLS they read the same: three levels, two or three bedrooms, a deck, a garage or an assigned space. What separates them is the updates and what's behind the deck. We give the renovated kitchen and baths their own frames, show a finished walkout basement as a real room rather than an afterthought, and shoot the back of the house when it faces trees or a common area. A measured floor plan ($75) answers the layout question before a buyer books a showing, and a 3D tour ($125) helps when relocating buyers are comparing several units from out of town.
Room to spread out toward Bull Run.
West of Centreville, toward Bull Run Regional Park and the Prince William County line, lots get bigger and many homes are newer. Here the yard, the trees and the space between houses are part of the price, and that's exactly what aerials show: where the lot ends, what it backs to, how far the nearest neighbor is. Photography + Drone ($250) covers most of these homes. For a larger house with a finished basement and a long feature list, Listing Launch ($450) adds a vertical reel for social media in the same visit, so the listing goes live with everything at once.
Drone photography in Centreville & Chantilly.
The Dulles ring is the line to know here. Chantilly is inside the 5-mile Dulles ring in our check, so our pilot gets LAANC authorization before the flight, usually in minutes, and the Sully Historic Site area off Route 28 is in the same position. South of I-66 it opens up: Centreville clears every ring in our airspace check, and Bull Run Regional Park clears every ring in our airspace check. The regional park has its own rules on launching, so park-side aerials are flown from the listing's own lot.
Our airspace check, place by place. Drone is available at every one of them. LAANC authorization first: Chantilly (5-mile Dulles ring) and Sully Historic Site (5-mile Dulles ring). Clear of every ring: Centreville, Ellanor C. Lawrence Park and Bull Run Regional Park. Every address is checked when you book, and the pilot runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day of every flight.

Centreville & Chantilly questions.
Can you fly a drone in Chantilly, so close to Dulles?
Yes. Chantilly is inside the 5-mile Dulles ring in our check, so our pilot gets LAANC authorization before the flight, usually in minutes. Centreville clears every ring in our airspace check. Every address is checked when you book, and the pilot runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day.
Do you photograph the walkout basement in a townhome?
Yes. A finished lower level with a walkout gets its own frames, and a floor plan shows how it connects to the rest of the house.
