These Suites were designed to meet both Independent and Assisted Living needs.

Unbelievably excellent experience! As a 57 year old 3rd generation Atlanta native I am in a search for future home for my 77 year old mother who currently lives on Georgia’s golden coast. We arrived without an appointment on a Saturday 10:30 Am – hoping to see the community and a few cottage units to tour . The entire staff was professional and knowledgeable and most importantly- caring and personable . Shelly was exceptional as manager -excellent interaction with residents- they adore her!!! The quality of the cottages and community overall and its saline heated pool, rehab center were best of class! What was most amazing and comforting to me was that over the course of our 1 hour tour, 7 separate residents of Sterling estates were eager to let us tour their cottage . They literally could not stop themselves from sharing with us how happy they were and how caring and helpful the staff were.
A truly amazing place and team !!!! Literally a 10 out of 10!!!
If you want a nice fancy independent living look no further, Their cottage homes are exquisite and top-of-the-line definitely get your moneys worth here they are the brand leaders of upscale communities in Atlanta !!
I began looking into retirement communities about two years ago. It was quite an adventure. I learned so much…and noticed differences with each one of the communities I visited. I am now here at Sterling Estates…in a beautiful cottage…and after only one month of living here, feel settled and at home. What made me choose Sterling? The staff is truly dedicated to each resident…and the upbeat atmosphere manifests this. The food is really good…there are many many activities and events and the other residents throughout the community are friendly and welcoming. The Executive Director and her sales team were my main contacts through the entire process and were always available, always positive… perfect examples of the caring, positive attitude of Sterling Estates East Cobb.
