Belfast pairs country-quiet living with quick access to Lehigh Valley amenities. Tucked into Northampton County, this small community offers tree-lined streets, wide skies, and an easy drive to Nazareth, Easton, and Bethlehem via Route 33. Local diners, farm stands, and family-run shops give daily errands a friendly, familiar feel, while larger shopping, arts, and dining districts are just minutes away.
Outdoor time is a daily habit here. The trails and creeks of the Jacobsburg Environmental Education Center invite hiking, mountain biking, fly-fishing, and winter walks, and the township’s multiuse paths, ball fields, and playgrounds are well maintained by Plainfield Township. For bigger adventures, the Appalachian Trail crosses nearby at Wind Gap, offering panoramic ridge views and a challenge for weekend hikers.
Families appreciate straightforward school options in the Pen Argyl Area School District, which serves Belfast with neighborhood-minded campuses, competitive athletics, and robust music and STEM programs. Plainfield Elementary, Wind Gap Middle School, and Pen Argyl Area High School anchor a calendar full of concerts, games, and community events that bring residents together across generations.
Homes range from classic farmhouses and slate-era twins to newer builds on roomy lots, with a market that suits first-time buyers, move-up households, and downsizers alike. Whether you’re buying or selling, Agent Pronto can introduce you to a proven local agent who knows Belfast and the greater Slate Belt inside and out.
