Sterling Estates Senior Living Communities Build on Their Gold Standard

MARIETTA, Ga. - July 20, 2016 - PRLog -- Thirty-year West Cobb resident Debbie Walker had a decision to make: find the best new home for her dad. "We knew dad needed to be in a senior living community that could meet his needs. After visiting many places, we decided on Sterling Estates of East Cobb; the minute I walked in the door, I knew this was the best place for us. I was so pleased with all of the love and attention he received there!"

"Success stories like this from our East Cobb property and encouragement from local officials let us know we were on the right track and inspired us to build another senior living community; this time in West Cobb," said Managing Partner Mike Brown.

Brown and his partners were able to assemble 25 acres from 17 different homeowners on Dallas Highway (3165 Dallas Highway) between W Sandtown Rd and Kennesaw View Dr. Brown said, "Having a large tract of land is essential to developing a senior community that has the feel and the qualities of your favorite neighborhood. Just because we have different needs as we age doesn't mean we should give up the things we love about our current neighborhood / home."

Construction started a little over a year ago on Sterling Estates of West Cobb. This senior rental community, complete with Cottages, Garden Homes, Independent Living Apartments, and Assisted Living Suites, has the grand opening scheduled for mid-August, at which time 50 residents are expected to move in.

West Cobb Residents Anne and David Strand will be moving into one of the twenty-one Cottages currently under construction. They said, "We don't need all the stuff and space in our old home, but we do like the large master bedroom, bathroom, and living areas of our new home at Sterling Estates. We're also glad somebody else will be in charge of all the yard work and maintenance. We write only one check, and they take care of everything!"

Brown went on to say, "We're local developers, owners, and managers which gives us the opportunity to be involved on a daily basis, which is what we love. What we've learned through the years is that seniors are no different than anyone else; they want a variety of housing options. However, all seniors are looking for socialization opportunities, great food in an inviting setting, a desire to stay independent, and the ability to age in place."

"Here at Sterling Estates of West Cobb, we've built a neighborhood where sidewalks, front porches, and planned events give you many opportunities to socialize. We'll have three dining venues with a variety of menus and choices. Food is very important in our business; in fact, our culinary team at our sister property in East Cobb just won the annual, local food festival called 'Taste of East Cobb.' We believe physical activity is essential to maintaining one's independence and have built a 7,500sf wellness center professionally staffed and complete with an indoor, heated salt water pool. We believe that we'll have the only licensed assisted living community in the market to provide care for those who may need help with the activities of daily living," Brown said.

Cobb County Commissioner Bob Weatherford has heard a lot of positive feedback about this development. "There is real demand for such a senior living community that provides a continuum of living and services where the operator has demonstrated in another area of Cobb County their expertise in delivering services and care to seniors," Weatherford said.
