Seven Corners is a commercial center and census-designated place (CDP) in Fairfax County, Virginia, United States.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 0.7 square miles (1.8 km2), all of it land.

The Upper Long Branch of Four Mile Run passes through the northernmost low point of the CDP.

The views to the south and west are unbroken, and offer scenic vistas in the directions of Annandale and Fairfax City.

Fort Buffalo stood on the southern side of the Leesburg Pike, at its current intersection with Sleepy Hollow Road.

The fort was built at that location to take advantage of the excellent views to the east and south—the direction from which Confederate Army troops were thought to possibly come.

After the war the massive fortification of Fort Buffalo was dismantled but other earthworks remained and were easily visible through the 1930s.

The construction of Route 50 caused the formation of a seven cornered intersection—or did until the mouth of Wilson Boulevard was rerouted slightly to avoid all those roadways converging on a single point.
