Property backing value scope

Question

Is anything like this possible? I\'m assuming not, but it looks good to me:

class MyClass {
    public int Foo {
        get { return m_foo; }
        s

Well, it's rather difficult to deal with, probably not very performant, and not something I'd really use, but technically it's a way of obscuring the backing field from the rest of the class.

public class MySuperAwesomeProperty
{
    private T backingField;
    private Func getter;
    private Func setter;
    public MySuperAwesomeProperty(Func getter, Func setter)
    {
        this.getter = getter;
        this.setter = setter;
    }

    public T Value
    {
        get
        {
            return getter(backingField);
        }
        set
        {
            backingField = setter(value);
        }
    }
}

public class Foo
{
    public MySuperAwesomeProperty Bar { get; private set; }


    public Foo()
    {
        Bar = new MySuperAwesomeProperty(
            value => value, value => { doStuff(); return value; });

        Bar.Value = 5;

        Console.WriteLine(Bar.Value);
    }

    private void doStuff()
    {
        throw new NotImplementedException();
    }
}
