- Appalachian Trail access points and regional hiking preserves

Homesteading & Country Estate Living in Warwick, New York
Owning acreage in Warwick, New York offers a rare opportunity to embrace true Hudson Valley homesteading while enjoying the comforts of a luxury country estate in the Hudson Valley. Properties of this scale allow homeowners to create a fully immersive self-sustained lifestyle — from raising chickens, goats, or horses, to cultivating gardens, orchards, and small farm operations. The land itself becomes a private recreational preserve, supporting personal hiking trails, dirt bike and ATV paths, snowshoeing routes, and nature corridors that change with the seasons. A private lake enables canoeing, kayaking, ice skating, and ice fishing, while wooded acreage offers space for wildlife observation, hunting posts, and outdoor recreation zones. This is the essence of Hudson Valley real estate with acreage — a lifestyle that blends homesteading freedom, rural luxury, and country estate living in one of the most desirable regions for buyers seeking real estate in Warwick NY and country estates near New York City.
Hudson Valley Real Estate Market Positioning
In today’s competitive Hudson Valley real estate market, properties offering lake frontage, acreage, privacy, and luxury construction occupy a distinct premium segment. While median home prices in Warwick remain far below estate-level properties, homes with private lakes, large land holdings, and gated access represent an extremely limited inventory category.
Bellefontaine is positioned as a luxury estate offering, reflecting:
- Scarcity of lakefront homes in Warwick NY
- Demand for acreage properties in the Hudson Valley
- Growth in luxury second-home and primary residence buyers
- Increased interest in lifestyle properties near NYC
- Rising demand for wellness-oriented living (nature, privacy, recreation)
This property is priced in alignment with the premium estate market segment, not the general Warwick housing market — appealing to buyers seeking a destination property, not simply a residence.
A Rare Hudson Valley Estate Opportunity
Additional luxury features include:
- Crestron smart lighting system
- Hunter irrigation system
- New water softener
- Full-house generator (ready to connect)
- Level 2 EV charger
- Warwick School District
Bellefontaine at 14 Stonewall Court is more than a home — it is a destination property, a lifestyle estate, and a rare opportunity to own one of the most distinctive private lake homes in the Hudson Valley.
