A mix of city and rural living
It's sometimes confused with a small farming hamlet with the same name that’s about 17 miles away, but the town of Wallkill, encircling the city streets of Middletown and on the cusp of forests and farmland, blends city and country living. Due to its proximity to Middletown, Wallkill offers residents a mix of big-box stores and upscale eateries, as well as tranquil country roads and untouched nature reserves. “Middletown is the hub of Hudson Valley, and parts of Wallkill share the same zip code,” says Gail Rachlin, a Realtor with Keller Williams Hudson Valley United who has over 20 years of experience. “It’s also a much more desirable and upscale community than surrounding towns.” New subdivisions with large homes are common due to a growing destination for commuters seeking a slower pace of life, with a nearby train station and New York City just 75 miles away.
Colonials, custom-builds and ranch-style homes
Hamlets within Wallkill like Scotchtown and Mechanicstown feature traditional residential streets where homeowners can greet their neighbors in passing. These properties typically feature modest lots with a mix of bi-levels, colonials and ranch-style homes priced from the $200,000s to the $400,000s. Mobile-home communities are clustered along New York State Route 211 and sell in the $100,000s. Townhouse complexes are also scattered around town, with units ranging from the $200,000s to the $500,000s. Contemporary homes and spacious New Traditional houses with colonial influences typically sit on larger, secluded lots. Properties can range from the $500,000s to over $1 million, with modern log cabins and historic farmhouses scattered in between. Homebuyers should also note that localized flooding and wildfire risk are possible given the community’s proximity to waterways and forested areas.
Wallkill has many homes on well kept lots.
Whether you prefer your neighbors nearby or far away, there are options for you in Wallkill.

Boating and swimming at Circleville Park
Small neighborhood parks and massive forested reserves make up Wallkill’s landscape. Community parks include Howard Drive, home to a playground and baseball diamonds that attract kids and Little Leaguers, and Dundee Circle Park, another small green space with a playground and picnic area. The 7-acre Henneside Lake awaits anglers at Circleville Park and is a popular spot for pedal boats and swimmers. The park is also home to the Town of Wallkill Boys & Girls Club, which holds after-school activities and summer camps for kids. Five miles from Circleville Park, Highland Lakes State Park offers over 3,000 forested acres for fishing, hiking and horseback riding. Locals can also explore scenic views along the Middletown Reservoir Trail. Golfers can play at Wallkill Golf Club or West Hills Country Club.

Shopping and dining along Route 211
Most amenities are clustered in and around Middletown, including houses of worship that range from historic churches to synagogues and Islamic centers. Strip malls, restaurants and grocers like ShopRite and Walmart Supercenter line both sides of New York State Route 211, known by residents as Miracle Mile. Locals can stock up at Sam’s Club or find numerous retailers at the Galleria at Crystal Run. Nearby eateries range from popular pizza joints like Cosimo’s Brick Oven to Viva Bandido Mexican Restaurant. A few miles west, Middletown has even more breweries and upscale restaurants like Oak & Reed. About 7 miles northwest along New York State Route 17, rural roads give way to small stores like Quickway Diner and Twin Cone, which attract crowds on summer evenings. “There’s still some beautiful horse and dairy farms nearby,” says Marion Bruhns, a Pine Bush resident and top-producing associate broker with Howard Hanna Rand Realty. On the cusp of this farmland, Wallkill's location allows residents to enjoy organic farm markets, orchards and wineries.
Wallkill residents can grab groceries from local Hannaford or Shop Rite.

Summer days at the Orange County Fair
Wallkill is home to the Orange County Fair, which has been held for over 100 years. Live performances and entertainment acts like Anastasini Circus take center stage every summer. There’s also a petting zoo, a roller coaster, carnival rides and games. Locals can end their nights enjoying firework displays while digging into a hot funnel cake topped with powdered sugar. When the fair isn’t happening, the Orange County Fair Speedway entertains racing fans. LEGOLAND New York Resort is only 12 miles away in neighboring Goshen, and for evenings at a slower pace, residents can head north along quiet, country roads to catch a movie at the Fair Oaks Drive-In.

LegoLand New York Resort sits on the outskirts of neighboring Goshen, NY.

U.S. Route 6 to New York City
Some neighborhoods feature paved sidewalks for afternoon strolls around the block, but Wallkill is primarily car-dependent. Public transit includes shuttle buses that run throughout the workweek and Dial-A-Ride services that require reservations ahead of time. Interstate 84 or New York state Route 17 can be used to get to Orange Region Medical Center, also known as the Garnet Health Medical Center. About 5 miles from the heart of Wallkill, Middletown is home to the closest train station. New York City is approximately a 75-mile drive via U.S. Route 6 or a 1.5-hour train ride.
