Ulster County Real Estate Blog

Now that spring has arrived, (and yes, despite that freak snowstorm earlier this week, it is infact still spring) we’re seeing an increase of homes entering the market. Highland, in particular has some great properties that have just been listed, but with amenities as great as these properties possess, we don’t think they will be up for grabs too long!

A townhouse is a great option for young professionals or small families as a starter home or for retirees who are looking to scale back their home ownership responsibilities. Owning a townhome usually gives you access to additional amenities and use of shared spaces in the complex and also means less maintenance and upkeep on outdoor spaces (always be sure to look at HOA fees and what they include while looking into purchasing townhouses to see what exactly is included!) You almost get the best of both worlds; the easy-going lifestyle and perks usually associated with renting and all the benefits and perks of actual homeownership- all bundled into one.

The featured properties below are located within the Bridgeview Townhomes Complex in the Town of Lloyd, a conveniently located ‘hub’ that will connect you to almost everywhere you need to be in the Hudson Valley and beyond. To begin, these properties are within walking distance of the Bridgeview Plaza, containing a supermarket, restaurants and fast food establishments, banks, salons and other retailers, meaning that you don’t even have to hop in your car to get your shopping and errands done. It’s only a few more minutes by car to reach the hamlet of Highland, where you can wine and dine with the locals at the new Underground Coffee and Ales- a hotspot where you can grab some local, unique brews and ciders on tap, or at Sal’s Place- the cornerstone restaurant and bar. In mere minutes by car you can cross the Mid-Hudson bridge to Poughkeepsie where you can continue your shopping at the major retailers of Route 9, or catch a train to take you directly to Grand Central station. Highland is a great commuter locale because of the ease of travel, in any direction- whether to Poughkeepsie, Kingston, New Paltz or Newburgh ( to get to I-84 and Stewart International Airport) and even New York City, it’s all a breeze!

If location alone isn’t enough to sell you on a property, you’re in luck because we aren’t done yet. Being part of the Bridgeview community means that you have access to all of the shared community amenities that this complex offers including, an outdoor inground swimming pool, clubhouse, playground, dog park, basketball court, tennis court and more. If you’re an outdoor enthusiast, you are again in walking distance of the world renowned Walkway over the Hudson State Park- the longest linear state park spanning a body of water (the Hudson River) and the Hudson Valley Rail Trail. A 15 minute drive to New Paltz will have you at the heart of the hiker’s and climber’s paradise of Mohonk and Minnewaska State Preserves. The access to great outdoor spaces, local conveniences, eateries, shops and more makes Bridgeview a prime location for just about anything you’re interested in doing in the Ulster County and beyond.
