Easy access to Madison in rural Belleville
The scenic Sugar River runs through the center of town in Belleville, a quiet, southern Wisconsin community surrounded by wooded groves and farmland. Just 20 miles south of downtown Madison, the village has a laid-back, rural feel and is centered around Lake Belle View. “Belleville is a peaceful, bedroom community of Madison,” says Jim Olson, a village local and owner of River City Realty. “Most people who live here commute to the city for work, but you’ll find significantly lower home prices here. We used to be more of a farming community, but our population has increased, and we’ve built more homes as people have been moving away from the city.”
The scenic railroad bridge in Belleville is part of the Badger State Trail.
Tall silos and barns are a common sight, highlighting Belleville’s strong agricultural roots.

Century-old farmhouses and brand-new developments
The area has a diverse housing market, from 1890s farmhouses to 21st-century Colonial Revivals and craftsman-style bungalows. Houses sit on lots of around a quarter acre, and front yards are dotted with mature oak, maple and pine trees. Fenced-in back lots and detached garages are common. New developments are underway in the Bell West subdivision, with the oldest homes built in 2022. Single-family homes range from $180,000 to $690,000, with prices increasing alongside modern upgrades, square footage and property size. Townhomes and condos can go for $210,000 to $290,000.
