AMLI Bellevue Park (Downtown Bellevue): Current Prices, Floor Plans, and the Lease Terms Most Listings Don’t Mention

Pricing & Floor Plans

The building’s live inventory listed on Zillow shows 15 available units across three bedroom counts. Computing price per square foot from the lowest-priced unit in each category gives a cleaner read than the sticker price alone.

The one-bedroom units are the best value per square foot in the current lineup. The studio carries the highest per-square-foot cost of the three, likely reflecting the fixed cost of a kitchen and bath in a smaller footprint. AMLI’s own floor-plan listings also advertise 3-bedroom and penthouse layouts up to 1,419 square feet, but none were in the live, priced inventory at the time of research.

Amenities

The building includes an indoor pool with a heated spa, a 24-hour fitness center, a sky lounge, a resident business center with conference rooms, garage parking, EV charging, and a private landscaped courtyard. It’s a two-building, 240-unit complex: WestCorp Construction’s case study on the property describes completing interior turns across all 240 units and refreshing the common areas and leasing office. That renovation explains why AMLI markets redesigned interiors on a building that Zillow records as built in 2000: the finishes are newer than the structure itself. One feature stands out statistically: fewer than 9% of Bellevue apartment buildings offer deck access, and this one does.

Location & Walkability

The building sits three blocks from Lake Washington and across the street from Downtown Park. Two separate scoring providers rate its walkability differently. Walk Score Company gives it 90 out of 100 (Very Walkable) and a Bike Score of 34 out of 100 (Somewhat Bikeable). Local Logic, licensed through Apartments.com, gives it a Walkability of 80 out of 100 and a Bikeability of 60 out of 100.

Both numbers describe the same location; they weight different inputs, and neither aggregator explains its methodology on the listing page. The walk figure is reliably high either way. The bike figure is genuinely unsettled between “somewhat bikeable” and “moderately bikeable” until you’ve ridden the actual route yourself.

What’s the real walk score, and how bikeable is it? Walk Score Company puts it at 90 for walking and 34 for biking. Local Logic puts walkability at 80 and bikeability at 60. Both agree it’s highly walkable; they disagree on how bike-friendly it is.

Schools

Two schools are consistent across both aggregators. Chinook Middle School, rated 8 out of 10 by GreatSchools, and Bellevue High School, rated 10 out of 10, are both listed as attendance-zone schools for this address. The elementary assignment is where the sources split.

Apartments.com’s schools panel lists Phantom Lake Elementary only as “Nearby,” not as an attendance-zone school, so it isn’t actually a competing claim; it just declines to name a zoned elementary at all. Enatai is the only elementary either source names as assigned. Attendance boundaries can still shift by unit or floor within a large building, so for a specific unit, the Bellevue School District’s locator tool is the source that settles it, not either listing aggregator.

Lease Terms, Fees & Fine Print

Pet Policy

Up to 2 pets per household. Each carries a $275 one-time fee and $35 monthly pet rent, per the structured pet-policy field on Zillow’s listing.

Air Conditioning & Utilities

Air conditioning here is a unit you rent, not standard central air. A resident review corroborates the structured listing data: one tenant described sleeping with a fan and a balcony breeze instead of renting the AC unit, and noted the apartment stays warm in winter without issue.

Application Requirements

AMLI’s fee schedule for this property lists a $50 application fee, a $275 administrative fee, and a $500 security deposit, all “subject to change” per the listing’s own disclaimer.

Is a 12-month lease available? No. Every lease term listed runs from 13 to 18 months; there’s no standard 12-month option.

Is air conditioning included in the rent? No. It’s a separate rental add-on, not included central air.

What Residents Say

An aggregated Google rating, visible on a third-party reputation-tracking page, puts the property at 3.8 out of 5 across 107 reviews. Positive reviews cluster around the leasing office’s responsiveness and the location. The most consistent complaint, echoed across several review threads, is the lack of central air conditioning in summer. One recent one-star review specifically flagged unprofessional leasing-office interactions with two named staff members, which stands out against an otherwise management-friendly review set.

How It Compares to Nearby Buildings

The Meyden undercuts this building’s studio starting price by $33 and offers individually controlled air conditioning as a standard feature, a direct answer to the most repeated resident complaint above. Avalon Meydenbauer starts $254 lower still and carries a Walk Score of 94, four points higher, and shares this building’s Enatai Elementary assignment, which is a point of agreement worth noting rather than a resolution of the underlying dispute.

Corporate & Furnished Stays

AMLI offers furnished apartments for stays of 30 or more days through a corporate housing partner, a detail that appears only on the brand’s own site and nowhere on the three aggregators reviewed here. It’s the one part of this listing built for relocating professionals arranging housing separately from a standard lease.

Are furnished or short-term stays available? Yes, for stays of 30 days or longer, arranged through AMLI’s corporate housing partner.
