The Soviets were/are well aware of many of the "secret" underground bunkers that exist in the Blue Ridge mountains (Mt. Weather, Mt. Pony, etc.), so you better believe that they would have dropped a few to our west. With the prevailing west to east winds, we would have had a lot of fallout. So even if you house didn't take a hit, the radiation would kill you eventually.
During the Cold War, the Soviets have many, many warheads aimed for DC and our other major cities/military institutions, and we in turn had the same for them. Fairfax, Prince William, Loudoun, etc. would have been toast.
