Welcome to the GPE II
Homeowners Website
Gate Post
Estates (GPE) is a single-family home
subdivision located near the western
border of Fairfax County off Route 29
and conveniently situated near the
Interstate 66 and Route 28
corridors. One is immediately
charmed by interesting hills and
vistas, the spaciousness of its lots,
the bike/walk paths along Cub Run, and
that the streets are named after
different colored posts such as "White
Post Road" which forms a loop and is
the single entrance. The
subdivision has two distinct part: the
"original" section located nearest to
Rt. 29 and built by former Battlefield
Builders; and the newer section "Gate
Post Estates II" which was built by
Richmond American, Ferguson-Flynn, and
the Airston Group.
GPE II starts with Sacred Lane and
house number 6606 White Post Road on
the right fork and 6714 White Post
Road on the left fork, and extends
back to, but not connected with
Compton Road.
There are 44 lots in the original
section (known as GPE I). GPE II
consists of 140 lots of which all 140
are occupied.
GPE II is governed by this homeowners'
association. This was a condition of
the covenants and bylaws which came
with the deed to the house and "run
with the land" and are binding to all
homeowners.
The original section (GPE I) does not
have a homeowners association.
Instead, there is a Gate Post Estates
Citizens Association which is
comprised primarily of the original
section's homeowners but is open to
membership for all the Gate Post
Estates. Membership dues are a
nominal $5 per year. It has
officers and representatives, one of
which serves on the influential
Western Fairfax County Committee of
Citizens' Associations (WFCCCA).
Both organizations recognize the
identity of each other and cooperate
jointly on matters common to the whole
neighborhood. An example was the
successful campaign effort petitioning
our local officials and Richmond
American in 1989 in closing the Blue
Post Road entrance from Compton
Road. The closure eliminated
through-traffic from our main
thoroughfares which was extremely
heavy during rush hour and posed a
danger to the safety of our children
and others.
