Median home prices in Vienna's 22180 zip code climbed 19.8% through August 2026, reaching $1.32 million. The gain ranks the area third among Northern Virginia zip codes for price appreciation in 2026.

The figures come from an Urban Turf analysis of Bright MLS data, reported by Northern Virginia Magazine on Wednesday, Oct. 7. To make the list, a zip code needed at least 25 sales between January and August.

Large detached homes drove the gains. They accounted for nearly 80% of sales in the 22180 zip code during that stretch, according to Urban Turf. Homes there sold at an average of 100.1% of their original list price, making it the only zip code on the five-zip ranking where sellers routinely got above asking.

That pattern sets Vienna apart from the two zip codes that outranked it. Rosslyn's 22209 posted a 56.4% jump, but Urban Turf noted the figure was inflated by new condo sales, an 18% rise in sales volume, and cash buyers accounting for nearly half of all deals. Alexandria's 22307 came in second at 44%, fueled by a 31% year-over-year increase in detached home sales while condo sales slipped.

Below Vienna, McLean's 22101 ranked fourth with a 17.1% increase. A third of that zip code's 290 sales closed at $2.5 million or more, and 40% of buyers paid cash. Clarendon's 22201 placed fifth at 15.7%, with 308 sales, the highest volume on the list.

The broader Fairfax County market has been more modest. Countywide, the average single-family sale price in July was $1,208,722, up 3.2% year-over-year, and homes sold at 99.1% of list price, according to Bright MLS data reported by FFXnow.

Vienna's luxury segment has also been active. In the second quarter of 2026, 42 of 107 sales in the 22180 zip code reached luxury status under Bright MLS criteria, placing it fifth in the Mid-Atlantic region, FFXnow reported in August. The D.C. metro luxury threshold that quarter was $1.9 million.

Lisa Sturtevant, chief economist for Bright MLS, said in an August report on Mid-Atlantic luxury sales that high-income buyers "… are less sensitive to elevated mortgage rates and benefit from greater economic security." That dynamic is visible in Vienna's numbers, where large, high-priced detached homes are driving the market.

The Urban Turf data covers January through August.
