DENVER, CO — Solera Senior Living, a Denver-based operator and developer of innovative senior living communities, has broadened its reach with the strategic acquisition of Echo Lake in Malvern, PA, and Daylesford Crossing in Paoli, PA. These Chester County properties are part of a larger acquisition of SageLife, founded by senior living leader Kelly Cook Andress, and mark a significant step in Solera’s growth and commitment to redefining industry standards.
Echo Lake and Daylesford Crossing are known for their upscale living and comprehensive care models. Echo Lake offers Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care in a resort-like setting with first-class amenities, while Daylesford Crossing provides Assisted Living and Memory Care tailored for a more intimate, personalized resident experience. These properties embody SageLife’s reputation for high-quality, hospitality-driven senior living, seamlessly aligning with Solera’s vision.
“These two communities are exceptional examples of innovation and excellence in senior living,” said Adam Kaplan, Founder and CEO of Solera Senior Living. “Both organizations share a deep commitment and responsibility to innovation and transformation, resulting in high-quality, person-centered care, excellence in hospitality, and an unparalleled resident experience. This acquisition strengthens our ability to deliver on those values and expands our footprint in Chester County’s thriving market.”
The acquisition builds on Solera’s growing presence in the Mid-Atlantic region and raises its portfolio to 14 properties across nine states. The deal includes three additional communities in Maryland and Massachusetts, cementing Solera’s reputation as a forward-thinking operator dedicated to creating unique living environments for seniors.
The transition follows the December 2024 conclusion of operations by SageLife, a company recognized for its pioneering approaches under the leadership of founder Kelly Cook Andress. Andress will join Solera’s Advisory Board, ensuring her legacy of innovation and compassion continues to shape the industry.
“Kelly’s visionary leadership transformed the senior living industry, and it’s an honor to carry on her incredible legacy,” Kaplan added. “She set the standard for luxury and hospitality-based services as well as compassionate care for seniors. We are deeply grateful for the foundation she built and are committed to preserving the values and principles that have made SageLife such a trusted name.”
Solera has also integrated key members of SageLife’s corporate team into its leadership structure, ensuring a smooth transition and continuity of excellence for residents and families.
Echo Lake and Daylesford Crossing now join Solera’s impressive portfolio of senior living communities nationwide, including properties in Las Vegas, Denver, Austin, and the Mid-Atlantic region. With the SageLife acquisition, Solera is well-positioned to continue expanding its next-generation approach to senior living while honoring the legacy of one of the industry’s trailblazing leaders.
Residents in Chester County can now look forward to enhanced experiences and services under Solera’s stewardship, reinforcing its mission to redefine the future of senior living.
