No, not really and I challenge you to do the drive from Middleburg to Chevy Chase during the week, should we say at 3 PM on Wednesday, in an hour. Middleburg is simply not convenient, very old, and very sleepy. OP, tell us more about you and your family. Do you have kids? If so, do you prefer public or private? What is your budget? 
I personally love Charlottesville and some old, leafy neighborhoods in Richmond. My favorites are Windsor Farms, Wilton, and Stonewall Ct - very close to the river and nature and still in the city with all the amenities.

Gorgeous houses, but the prices seem very high for a small city like Richmond.[/quote]

It's not small - there are over 1.3 million people in the area.

And I have news for you.

"The most competitive housing market in the country based on bidding wars is a state capital in the Mid-Atlantic region." "Some markets continue to see a very high rate of bidding wars, even as competition at a national level has dissipated with the advent of cooler weather. Richmond, Va., recorded the highest percentage of offers facing competition, with 80% of the offers presented by Redfin agents effectively entering into a bidding war. " "Over a third of people searching for homes in Richmond, Va., for instance, were from outside the metro area, with most of those migrants coming from the Washington, D.C., area roughly 100 miles away."

"According to a recent LinkedIn study, Richmond is third in the nation for attracting new residents during the pandemic, and homes are selling at prices 15% higher on average than last year."

Don’t bother, pp, the uninformed Richmond hate on this board runs deep.  Either way, RVA is most definitely not a “charming small town” as it is, like you said, a booming mid-Atlantic city.  Co-Star just announced that they are building the tallest building in the state of Virginia there.  I’d even argue that Charlottesville is more bustling than OP would like.  Staunton or Winchester probably fit the bill though.[/quote]
