LifeMinded is the way we approach community and living well at Bellewood. It's our promise to help you stay active, connected, and engaged, on your own terms. Here, you can shape your days around what brings you joy, from fitness and lifelong learning to meaningful friendships.

No one likes worrying about rent hikes year after year, so we created a program that rewards you for staying:

• After 3 years → rent increases cap at 3%
• After 5 years → cap drops to 2%
• After 10 years → your rent locks for life

No huge buy-ins. No surprise fees. Just a straightforward promise that helps you plan ahead with confidence—something you’ll only find at Bellewood.

Yes. You can access personal care services right in your apartment. We partner with trusted local providers—or you can choose your own—to help with grooming, laundry, medication reminders, and other needs as they arise.
