Sancerre Atlee Station was purpose-built for residents who want a vibrant daily life alongside the support that makes it sustainable. The community sits just minutes from Richmond in Hanover County, adjacent to the Atlee Station Family YMCA and surrounded by the neighborhood it was designed to serve.

The building’s farmhouse-modern design reflects the character of the area, and every shared space was planned with ease and connection in mind. The great room with its floor-to-ceiling fireplace is a natural gathering place. Card room nooks, the sunroom, covered porch, library, and bistro give residents plenty of options for how they want to spend their time. For residents who want to get out, our transportation program provides personalized and group outings for shopping, appointments, and local events throughout the area.

Assisted Living

Assisted Living is designed for adults who want support with certain daily tasks while continuing to live an active, socially connected life. Residents typically include those who:

  • Need help with daily activities such as bathing and dressing
  • Require assistance with medication management
  • Need support with meal preparation or have difficulty cooking independently
  • Want help with housekeeping and laundry
  • Are looking for social interaction and a structured activity calendar
  • Have safety concerns living alone at home

Residents in Assisted Living do not require the continuous medical oversight or programming provided in a Memory Care setting. Our Leasing Counselors are happy to walk through your specific situation and help you determine whether Assisted Living is the right fit.

Both offer personalized support and a full calendar of programming, but they serve different needs. Memory Care is a smaller, secured neighborhood within our community, with a higher care partner-to-resident ratio and programming designed for individuals living with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s-related, vascular, or other forms of dementia. Assisted Living offers a broader range of social experiences and greater resident independence. If you’re unsure which level of care is the right fit, our team can help.

Independent Living is designed for adults who manage their daily needs without hands-on support. Assisted Living adds a structured layer of personalized care, including help with daily activities and 24-hour nursing staff availability. Both levels enjoy the same community amenities and dining experience. The primary difference is the degree of daily support provided.

Yes. Sancerre Atlee Station is a proudly pet-friendly community across all levels of care. Our walking paths, courtyard, and outdoor spaces make it a comfortable environment for residents and their companions.
