Sweetwater Terraces is a gated 55+ senior living community with several types of housing, including efficiency, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom apartments, and every apartment has either a patio or balcony, along with energy-efficient features like individual climate control, designer kitchens with Energy Star appliances, and all utilities included in the rent, so you won't have extra bills for basics. There are six different floor plans, named Ashlynn, Tyler, Andrew, Rebecca, Christina, and Madison, ranging in size from 496 to 1,180 square feet, and units have details like stainless steel double sinks, maple wood cabinets, 48-inch ceiling fans in the living rooms, and washer/dryer hookups. Residents can use private storage spaces and have access to transportation for appointments, shopping, and activities, which helps with getting out and about when needed. For safety, the property has controlled gated entry and secured building access, and regular on-site maintenance is available.
Around the grounds of Sweetwater Terraces, there are beautifully cared for gardens, a courtyard with a goldfish pond, a community garden where you can help grow plants, private BBQ grill areas, and plenty of places to sit and relax outdoors, and if you prefer being inside, there are day lounges, a library, a business center, and a chapel or meditation room. The Gracious Dining Room, with a fireplace, offers space for meals, community events, and there's a private dining room for parties or family gatherings, plus a spacious kitchen used for catering and community functions. Scheduled classes and events include things like bingo, Wii Bowling, Bible study, arts and crafts, computer skills, music groups, stitching, jewelry making, health and wellness topics, healthy cooking, and guest speakers talking about topics like insurance, estate planning, and living well as a senior.
Fitness and wellness are supported by a modern fitness center, a wellness center, scheduled classes for exercise, and a pet walk area, so pets are welcome, plus there's a swimming pool and space both inside and out for group activities and social clubs. Other practical amenities include complimentary laundry rooms, an onsite mailing and postal service, beauty salon and barber shop, craft and activity lounges, and an audio and video theatre, with most daily needs met without leaving home. For those who need extra help, Sweetwater Terraces offers a range of care, from independent living for active adults to assisted living services like help with dressing, bathing, or managing medication, plus residential care homes, memory care designed for people with dementia, respite care for short stays, and home care services provided by trained aides for non-medical help and companionship at home.
The community sits close to Interstate 85, Gwinnett Place Mall, and White Chapel Memorial Gardens, making visits with family or outings easy. With scheduled transportation, online rent payment, and focus on safe, comfortable living, the place tries to cover the needs of residents. While Sweetwater Terraces aims to set a high standard for senior communities, it's mainly a place where seniors can live with dignity in a social, safe, and supportive setting, and find both activity and peace, depending on what's needed day to day, and that probably makes life a bit easier.
