A rural community near Pensacola's hustle and bustle
The community of Bellview, located on Pensacola’s west side, shares many characteristics with its popular neighbor, including a mix of single-family homes and convenient shopping and dining. But in Bellview, homes are spread out a little more, giving it a more rural feel. “In 10 minutes, you can get anywhere in Pensacola but without the crazy traffic,” says Sally Kelley, a Realtor with Adams Homes Realty who sells throughout the Emerald Coast. Kelly says that when people discover this community of 26,000, they don’t want to leave. “I’ve had people move from one neighborhood to another because they wanted to stay in Bellview but are downsizing or growing,” she says.
