Senior Living Communities

Come tour our two Retirement Communities in Marietta and see why so many seniors are choosing to call Sterling Estates home. These communities, built like residential neighborhoods, were developed by six partners who have lived in greater Atlanta most of their adult lives and have over 125 years of combined senior living industry experience. These individuals are committed to providing the finest lifestyle, services and care for their residents.

Three of the six partners are Marietta locals - so there were no questions in their minds when deciding where to locate these properties. Sterling Estates Managing Partner Mike Brown tells us that every aspect of planning, designing and developing Sterling Estates had one primary objective, “What would we want for our own loved ones?”

In partnership with families, Sterling’s commitment is to encourage and empower each resident to stay active and independent by focusing on wellness and socialization activities that promote physical and mental stimulation, which is proven to enhance quality of life. Wellness programs and socialization activities that maintain one’s quality of life are not an afterthought for these communities, they are central to what the owners and staff are trying to deliver for their residents. Sterling Estates’ two senior living communities are located in East Cobb and West Cobb, with a future development underway in Cumming, Sterling Estates of Forsyth. Unlike typical senior living communities, these are built on substantial acreage with plenty of green space and room for extensive outdoor amenities for residents’ enjoyment and use.

STERLING ESTATES OF WEST COBB

Situated on 30 acres in a classic neighborhood setting with walking paths, large resident garden, beautifully landscaped courtyards and parks, Sterling Estates of West Cobb - which opened in 2016 - offers independent living cottages, garden homes and apartments. Additionally, its main building, The Landmark, provides apartment living and is licensed to provide assisted living services to residents residing there. The Landmark has a variety of dining options and a state-of-the-art $1,000,000+ Sterling Way Wellness Center with an indoor heated, saltwater, aerobic pool.

The West Cobb property opened in June of 2019 a new (The Hampton) independent living residence with additional one- and two-bedroom apartments, a large clubhouse (The Club), with indoor and outdoor seating, and a bar for socializing and “happy hours.” The Club also includes areas for art, sculpturing and woodworking, as well as a technology/media center.

Cobb Life Magazine and the Marietta Daily Journal named Sterling Estates senior communities to its 2021 “Best of Cobb” list.

Sterling Estates of East Cobb was voted Best Assisted Living Community in Cobb County, while its sister property Sterling Estates of West Cobb was voted Best Retirement Living Community. The West Cobb community, The Grande at Sterling Estates was also named Best Memory Care Community. This is the third year in a row for the senior living communities to receive top honors in the contest, which awards businesses based on voting open to the public.

“We’re very proud that our Sterling Estates Communities once again won Best of Cobb in 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic obviously has presented significant challenges worldwide, with no one more impacted than our seniors and their families,” said Brown. “Our team has met those challenges head on throughout the year. In fact, our communities are the only senior living communities in the state of Georgia approved as direct suppliers of the vaccine, allowing our residents, staff and loved ones to achieve full vaccination back in January. We believe we’ve led the way in not only keeping our residents safe throughout the last year but also socially engaged and physically active. In the face of this pandemic new residents even more so, continue to choose our communities over living alone in their homes, isolated and physically inactive. We are grateful for the continuing recognition of our efforts by Best of Cobb voters.”

In addition to the new independent living apartments and clubhouse, a state-of-the-art memory care residence (The Grande) opened in June of 2019 as well. The single-story building with 36 resident suites features three strategically placed “engagement centers” as well as a secure central interior therapeutic garden and courtyard. Partner Mike Brown added, “We were determined to deliver Marietta and greater Atlanta a cutting-edge, evidence-based memory care center, and believe we have done so.”
