If you want to access the LAN side of pfSense that's running in the vm from within windows. You'll have to create a bridge interface in your host OS then set your pfSense's LAN interface to be bridged to that bridge interface.
for example
windows
|
bridge interface
|
virtualbox
|
pfsense LAN interface (using the bridge interface in the host OS)
|
pfsense WAN interface (using the NAT interface in virtualbox)
|
Internet
