Oakton Trolley Station is a historic trolley station located at Oakton, Fairfax County, Virginia. It was built in 1905, by the Washington and Fairfax Electric Railway Company. It is a three-story, vernacular frame building. It has a rectangular plan, with a wrap-around open porch, weatherboards and a tin roof. The building was used as a trolley station until 1939, then as a post office and general store, then as a boarding house. The building was restored in 1988, as a single family dwelling.
