Heritage Haven
Affordable, Comfortable, & Convenient Rental Living
Our most affordable neighborhood for senior independent living is our rental living community of Heritage Haven. This 150-apartment community offers rental housing which VMRC manages in coordination with the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for low-income individuals 62 years of age or older where rental amounts are based on household income. Comprising 36 percent of our independent living units, Heritage Haven follows VMRC founder George B. Showalter’s intention to take care of elders. The board of Virginia Mennonite Home opened Heritage Haven in 1981 as the second building on our campus.

Heritage Haven’s location on VMRC’s campus and on a city bus line make it an attractive, welcoming and convenient choice for senior independent living. HUD inspectors recognize its well-maintained buildings and grounds, organized management and staff responsiveness.
Residents Create Community
Heritage Haven comes with the same high-quality experiences found throughout the greater VMRC community. Social spaces include several activity rooms, a library, coffee shop and campus restaurants. A jaunt down Main Street connects residents to hair salons, a credit union, a resident-operated store and the Wellness Center.
