A slower lifestyle, but not secluded
Everybody likes a comeback story: Spring Valley was home to a major military parts manufacturer for over 50 years, but recently the area has become a focus of attention, as it aims to revitalize its downtown. In addition to adding commercial space, developers have added housing, including townhouses – hearkening back to Spring Valley’s golden years, when it was a mix of play and work, and not overshadowed by bigger retail destinations. Susan McMullen, a Realtor with eXp Realty, notes that the lifestyle around this area can be pleasing to those who are looking for a slower pace with neighborly face time, while also having an easy commute to bigger cities. “It’s not that hustle and bustle of New York City, but you can get to your job nice and quick. And we have just a lot of community vibe here.” Indeed, Spring Valley is about 30 miles north of Manhattan, so it’s a popular commuter hub, especially with the commuter rail station downtown. Many choose to drive, thanks to convenient proximity of Interstate 287.
Spring Valley is located within the towns of Ramapo and Clarkstown in Rockland County, NY.

From midcentury Cape Cods to modern split-levels
Along with renovations to downtown, homebuyers will see that many of the single-owner homes went through interior renovations in the mid-2010s. Of interest to buyers is the fact that not all of the housing stock dates from the same era, giving plenty of styles to choose from. First, there are modest homes from Spring Valley’s midcentury heyday, including red brick Cape Cods with four bedrooms that sprawl over 1,300 square feet. Housing stock such as this reflects a denser approach that Spring Valley took towards neighborhood development, so it's not uncommon to see just a small ornamental strip of lawn out front or short driveways with no garage. But there are also split-level homes from the 1980s situated on curving streets with cul-de-sacs and mature shade trees and driveways leading to attached garages. Generally, home prices are in the $700,000s. For example, a four-bedroom Colonial from the 1970s, featuring a finished basement and mixed materials on the facade, will go for $750,000. But for the same price, homebuyers can find a five-bedroom split-level home from 1993, renovated in 2023, and featuring a quarter acre fenced lot.
Spring Valley are mostly single family ranch style homes.
