Senior living community owner and operator Sterling Estates announced the completion of the latest phase in its Marietta retirement neighborhood, Sterling Estates of West Cobb. The company will hold a groundbreaking ceremony and reception later in July with local officials, members of the press and the public invited to attend.

“In our residential community, well over half of our residents live independently in their cottage or apartment home,” said Sterling Estates Managing Partner Mike Brown. “We have provided them a vast array of amenities and services to enjoy with a variety of dining options, a large Sterling Way Wellness center, resident garden, and even a bocce ball court.”

A private entertainment room is available for parties, small events and presentations.

“Our residents have so many opportunities for activities – there is never enough time to do it all,” exclaimed Deana Harris, executive director at Sterling Estates.

Like its sister community, Sterling Estates of East Cobb, the thirty-acre Sterling Estates of West Cobb has independent living cottages, garden homes and apartment homes in a classic neighborhood setting with walking paths, large resident garden, beautifully landscaped courtyards and pocket parks among other amenities for resident enjoyment. When fully built out, the independent neighborhood will have 59 cottages and garden homes and 50 one- and two-bedroom independent apartments with the independent living clubhouse. In addition to independent living, the community has a main living residence with 90 apartments, licensed as assisted living providing studio, one- and two-bedroom suites where residents live independently and receive assistance as needed. This main residence, The Landmark, has a variety of dining venues including The Sterling Grill and also the Sterling Way Wellness Center with an indoor heated saltwater aerobic pool. The interior courtyard between The Landmark Residence and the two Independent Residences, The Stratford and The Hampton, provides additional gardens and walking paths and two shuffleboard courts.

Earlier in July, Sterling Estates opened its memory care residence, The Grande, in the West Cobb development, which includes 36 resident suites; with the opening of The Hampton, all that remains to complete the community is finishing the construction of its final fourteen cottages, of which five are already preleased. These spacious two-bedroom cottages are slated to open in the early fall of this year. Additional amenities including a dog park are planned for the fall as well, rounding out the popular Marietta neighborhood community.

Sterling Estates of West Cobb was voted #1 Retirement Community in Cobb County for 2019 by Cobb Life Magazine and the Marietta Daily Journal.

Sterling Estates of West Cobb is located at 3165 Dallas Highway, in the heart of Cobb County. Opened in August 2016, it currently has over 200 residents living throughout its neighborhood. Private tours are available by appointment; call 770.255.7000 for scheduling.
