Wentworth Village

Wentworth Village sits in the Bellbrook neighborhood of Bellbrook, Ohio, in Greene County, and the place is meant for seniors 55 and over who want to stay active while having support close by, so you get things like a clubhouse with a swimming pool, fitness room, social events like Euchre nights, and all kinds of different programs right inside the community building there on 2024 Wentworth Village Drive, and the design mixes cedar, stucco, and wood siding on the condos, with gas fireplaces, walk-in closets, roomy kitchens, two-car garages, and sunrooms in most units, and you see lots of seniors going about their day with help if they need it for things like bathing, dressing, managing medicine, or just getting around safely, and the staff check in with an emergency alert system and 24-hour supervision. They run daily activities and have scheduled events-sometimes run by the residents themselves-and the calendar is set up online for everybody to see, with things like art classes, fitness programs, games in the activity room, and even a movie theater, so there's always something to do inside, and outdoors there are walking paths, water features, and nearby parks if you want a stroll. The clubhouse also hosts events for folks of all ages, with contests and programs for youth like essay and visual art contests, fishing derbies, and safety days, so you get a sense of a place rooted in the bigger Bellbrook and Greene County area, close to nearby towns like Xenia and Beavercreek, but you do need a car usually since the walk score is only 20. The condos themselves have ceiling fans, central air, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and some let you keep a phone line if you like, and you get full kitchens and options for furnished setups in some places, and people can take their meals in the restaurant-style dining room with options for special diets like diabetes, and meals are available all day if you need flexibility. Housekeeping, laundry, and move-in support are available, with an HOA fee covering things like your water, trash, insurance, and access to the clubhouse facilities, so daily chores go a little easier. Memory care is there if someone needs supervision for dementia or support, and there's respite care so families can get a break if they're caregiving, and the community also helps out with scholarships for local youth and runs involvement events like Christmas tree lots and neighborhood gatherings to build community ties. Rent is usually around $2,490 a month, and the homes were mostly built in 2005 in a ranch or rambler style, so lots of one-floor living with storage, brick and wood accents, and easy entrances. The overall feel is calm and homey, with residents finding ways to connect, get some help if needed, and keep living the kind of life they want, whether that's in a quiet private suite or out at an afternoon Euchre game with friends.
