Bellerive is one of the smallest and most exclusive villages in Grasslands — just 30 maintenance-free patio homes on a single street, Bellerive Drive, just inside the main gates. The homes overlook a canal and the 18th hole of the golf course, and the clubhouse, pool, tennis, and pickleball are a short walk or golf-cart ride away. If you want the lock-and-leave ease of a patio home without giving up size or finish quality, Bellerive is where Grasslands buyers look first.
Bellerive homes were built between 2001 and 2005 and are the largest patio homes in Grasslands, ranging from about 2,679 to 4,875 square feet on lots of roughly a quarter to a third of an acre. Finishes read like custom homes: tile roofs, solid wood cabinetry, granite counters, high-end appliances, detailed millwork, and brick-paver driveways, walkways, and patios. Three-car garages are common, many homes have private screened pools, and the best lots combine pool, canal, and 18th-hole views in one backyard.
Recent listings show the Bellerive HOA at about $509 per month, and the coverage is extensive: weekly mowing, annual mulch, tree trimming, roof and exterior pressure washing on a three-year cycle, exterior painting every six years, the 24-hour guard gate, and common grounds. Club membership is separate from the HOA. See Grasslands membership costs on the main Grasslands page.
With only 30 homes, Bellerive feels private in a way the bigger villages do not. The street is quiet, the landscaping is immaculate, and the 18th green gives the whole village a front-row seat to the end of every round. Owners here tend to be people who travel or keep a second home and want a substantial house — not a villa — that looks after itself while they are gone. When they are home, the club is practically an extension of the neighborhood: dining, the pool, and the courts are all within a few minutes by cart.
Bellerive sits just inside the main Grasslands gate in South Lakeland, off Harden Boulevard. Lakeside Village shopping and dining is a few minutes away, downtown Lakeland and Lakeland Linder International Airport are each about 15 minutes, and the Polk Parkway puts I-4 within easy reach. Homes are zoned for Polk County public schools serving South Lakeland; ask Elizabeth to confirm zoning for a specific home.
