Spatial non-stationarity in multi-cell extremely large-scale MIMO (XL-MIMO) confines each user to a visibility region (VR) of each array. VR-Net exploits these regions for subarray-level coordinated beamforming. A base-station (BS)-indexed conflict graph identifies overlapping VRs; gain-based association and a masked multi-cell weighted minimum mean square error (WMMSE) iteration restrict beam design and channel state information (CSI) uploads to the relevant subarray blocks. We establish conditions for exact per-cell decoupling, derive the expected CSI loads, bound the loss of designing on the VR-gated channel and the loss of the support constraint, and characterize single-edge visibility contrast through a closed-form Fresnel transition width. Simulations use a 3GPP TR 38.901 Release-19-based near-field UMi channel with modular facade arrays and pre-registered criteria. At a 30 dB threshold, VR-Net retains at least 99.6% of the full-aperture WMMSE sum rate in every tested setting while uploading 10-39% fewer complex CSI entries. It gains up to 3.5 bit/s/Hz over an all-user adaptation of the multi-cell scheme of Pérez-Adán et al. at moderate power and dense load, and inter-cell coordination adds up to 33% over per-cell design.
