On the west side of Bel-Red, Overlake Medical Center is a nonprofit hospital with an emergency room, in addition to being a major employer.Spring District, a brewery and restaurants
Bel-Red is home to a wealth of shops and businesses. "I think the focal point would be the Spring District," says Chris Tolstoy, Real estate broker at Keller Williams Eastside. "It's just a blend of industrial and commercial space that people frequent." Bellevue Brewing Company's Brewpub is adjacent to Spring District Park and there's free parking available. The brewery is open daily and features Bellevue's largest dining patio.Throughout Bel-Red, menu variety is found at restaurants like Liuyishou Hotpot, Curry Point, Ezell's Famous Chicken and Monserrate Colombian Cuisine. International shops like Asian Family Market, Rose Persian Market and Swagath Indian Grocery and Restaurant provide import and specialty items. The area also has a Safeway, Fred Meyer and Whole Foods Market.
Bel-Red Station, Route 520 and I-405

There are plenty of bus stops, notably along Bel-Red Road. Sound Transit's light rail East Link Extension added eight new stations from South Bellevue to Redmond. The BelRed Station has 300 parking spaces. The station is an anchor for the BelRed Arts District, a designated area that supports creative businesses and arts organizations.With a junction in the northwest section of Bel-Red, state Route 520 and I-405 provide convenient routes north, south, east or west. Sea-Tac, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, is approximately 20 miles away.
Limited inventory, Lake Bellevue Village Condos

Condos and townhouses are priced from about $515,000 to $1.3 million. The Lake Bellevue Village Condos encircling the lake are within walking distance of waterside businesses and eateries and go for approximately $650,000 to $775,000.Grade A for Odle Middle and Sammamish High

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
