On November 19, Belmont Village Senior Living celebrated a significant milestone with a groundbreaking ceremony for its latest luxury project, Belmont Village Rancho Santa Fe. This new senior living community is designed to emulate a resort-style environment and is nestled within the exclusive gated Lakes at Rancho Santa Fe community. Featuring an impressive total of 185 residences, the development will offer independent living, assisted living, and specialized memory care options, including 15 lovely private cottages situated in a serene neighborhood just behind the prestigious Crosby National Golf Club and in close proximity to Maranatha Christian School in the thriving 4S Ranch area.
Belmont Village Rancho Santa Fe is poised to become the company’s fourth establishment in the San Diego region, further enhancing its portfolio and building upon the triumph of its La Jolla community, which opened its doors to residents in 2022. This ambitious project is being developed in partnership with Greystar Real Estate Partners and is anticipated to reach completion by late 2026, adding a state-of-the-art housing option for seniors in the area.
“Our continued collaboration with Belmont Village allows us to build a senior living community that blends thoughtful design with the highest standard of care, right here in a place we deeply value,” expressed Jerry Brand, a dedicated Rancho Santa Fe resident and executive director at Greystar, emphasizing the project’s significance in the community.
Belmont Village Rancho Santa Fe will offer a versatile range of living spaces, including studio apartments, one-and two-bedroom units, as well as spacious two to two-and-a-half-bedroom cottages tailored for senior residents. On-site amenities designed for residents’ enjoyment and well-being will feature a sophisticated restaurant and bar, a well-equipped fitness center, a heated swimming pool for year-round leisure, an inspiring art studio, an inviting sports lounge, a movie screening room for entertainment, and a luxurious full-service salon. The beautifully landscaped outdoor areas will include tranquil walking paths, a dog park for furry companions, a bocce ball court for friendly competition, and a putting green for golf enthusiasts.
In an effort to enhance the quality of life for residents, Belmont Village has partnered with the University of California San Diego’s esteemed Stein Center for Research on Aging. This collaboration aims to provide residents access to pioneering research and innovative programs that promote successful aging, as outlined in their recent release.
“Belmont Village has always been committed to providing unparalleled living experiences for our residents, and this groundbreaking marks another step in that mission,” stated Patricia Will, the passionate founder and CEO of Belmont Village Senior Living. “As a resident of Rancho Santa Fe, I am personally invested in bringing this exceptional community to life,” she added, showcasing her dedication to the project and its future residents.
