Senior Living in Virginia’s Historic Farm Country
At The Culpeper, you’ll enjoy a lifestyle of vitality and wellness in a contemporary retirement community nestled in Virginia’s historic farm country. Here, modern innovations in senior living harmonize with the deep-rooted values of our founding in 1948 by a minister from Culpeper Baptist Church, a congregation that has faithfully served the people of our region for 250 years.
You’ll Love The Culpeper Lifestyle
The gently undulating foothills, rolling meadows, and gorgeous sunsets over the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains all set the scene for an unmatched retirement lifestyle on our gorgeous 100-acre campus perfectly placed between the cultural hubs of Northern Virginia and Charlottesville.
Explore the LifestyleLiving Options
We offer a range of premier senior living options to fit your needs and lifestyle. You can start at any level of care and, because The Culpeper is a Life Plan Community (also known as a Continuing Care Retirement Community or CCRC), you can seamlessly transition to higher levels of care as needs change.

Yesterday at The Culpeper, we gathered to celebrate the people who make a difference in our community! 💙
Our Influencer Award and Volunteer Celebration, sponsored by ColonialWebb, a CSUSA Company and Comfort Systems USA Shoffner, honored the incredible impact made by residents who lead through service and heart.
We were proud to recognize Vince Skrinak as this year’s Influencer. The Virginia Baptist Homes Foundation Influencer Award recognizes a champion at each LifeSpire community who creates a positive impact by living out our values. From welcoming new team neighbors and encouraging team members to honoring our nation through 23 years of service, Vince is humble and steadfast, and it was our pleasure to honor him.
We also celebrated the many volunteers who show up day after day to support, uplift, and care for one another. Your generosity is the heartbeat of The Culpeper, and we are deeply grateful!

Happy 80th Anniversary to LifeSpire of Virginia and Virginia Baptist Homes!More than 80 years ago, Dr. J.T. Edwards, Pastor of Culpeper Baptist Church, stood before Baptists in Virginia to present a question: “What are we doing to care for the aging adults in our communities?”
That question inspired the incorporation of Virginia Baptist Homes on March 25, 1946. It would grow into communities across the Commonwealth: The Culpeper, The Chesapeake Retirement Community, Lakewood Retirement Community, The Glebe Retirement Community , and most recently, The Summit in Lynchburg. It would expand to care at home through our program AgeSmart.
Today, his question is answered through LifeSpire of Virginia and our mission to empower individuals with choices in purposeful living, supported by the Virginia Baptist Homes Foundation, to continue his promise to provide for aging adults
We’re excited to share the cover of our 80th-anniversary edition of Community Matters, celebrating the foundation laid over the past 80 years and committing to the next 80 years of faith, community, and wellness. Learn more at bit.ly/VBH-80
