About the neighborhood

Cream cheese, rail trails, Sugar Loaf

Chester's village Main Street, with its historic brick storefronts, grew out of dairy farming and the railroad; the town is known as the birthplace of Philadelphia Cream Cheese, and the old Erie Railroad corridor now runs as the Orange Heritage Trailway for walkers and cyclists. Housing across this Orange County town ranges from stately Victorians and modest farmhouses to newer subdivisions and rural-edge homes on winding roads.

Sugar Loaf, the town's artisan hamlet, holds galleries, studios, and craft shops against mountain views, and Goosepond Mountain State Park adds open land. Schools are well regarded and parks plentiful; commuters use the major routes and transit connections. The result is a Hudson Valley town that keeps farmland and creative energy in the same frame.
