How much does The Belle Meade at River Oaks cost? (checked Oct 2, 2026)
The Belle Meade’s floor plans page listed plan sizes for every layout but a price for only one. On Oct 2, 2026, The Stanmore (one-bedroom, one-bath, 1,215 sq ft) showed “From $3,048 per month” on a 15-month lease with a $400 deposit and 2 units available. A two-bedroom Chevy Chase (alt) plan showed 1 unit available with a $500 deposit but no price. The property says rent quotes are system-generated for a specific apartment and lease date, are valid for two business days and can change daily, and that floor premiums, pool views, utilities and renters liability insurance can add to the rate. Ask for a dated quote. See the Belle Meade floor plans page for what is open.
Special: I did not find a posted special on the pages I read, so ask whether any offer applies to your move-in date.
