The Belvedere sits on the border of Clarence and Williamsville in suburban Buffalo, offering a 55+ rental community with a mix of independent living, assisted living, and memory care services all under one roof, and you can see plenty of trees from many of the windows which is pleasant if you enjoy a view. The apartments start at 1,050 square feet and go up to 1,750 square feet, so the rooms feel quite open, with 9-foot ceilings, full kitchens, in-unit washers and dryers, and oversize balconies or patios for every apartment. Some units are on the ground floor, and the whole place is set up to be easy for wheelchair users, with accessible showers and rooms. Each bathroom comes with a tub, and every room's got air conditioning. There's Wi-Fi throughout the building for anyone who needs to stay connected.
If you don't drive anymore, there's transportation built in, and paying rent happens online through the resident portal, which you can also use to sign up for things or check on what's available. There's a decent-size heated saltwater outdoor pool, an in-house pub for residents to hang out, a library, and a hobby room for crafts like knitting. Residents can take part in different activities, and those who want fitness options can use the 24/7 gym or try out some of the exercise classes. If you want to have a small party, the facility has a community room with a full kitchen you can actually rent.
The property offers memory care services that help reduce confusion for people with dementia, using features and staff practices that prevent wandering. Assisted living services cover support with daily needs like bathing, dressing, and managing medication. General counseling is also offered when residents need some guidance or support.
Rooms are available in sizes like 1-bedroom, 1-bath units with the smallest being about 1,050 square feet, and there are often several units open at any time. The rent ranges from $1,699 to $1,885 depending on the unit. Outdoors, you might notice some field clubs and places to eat, and inside there's even a ballroom. The Belvedere puts focus on simple, hassle-free, and social living for seniors who want to stay active and independent, and because the place gets updated often, the information you find about open units tends to be current. Office hours run weekdays from 9 in the morning to 5 in the evening, and there's a website if you like to look at photos or read more details before deciding if it's the right place for you.
