About Serenbe

Each of Serenbe’s four hamlets have complementary commercial centers focused on the elements of a well-lived life: arts for inspiration, agriculture for nourishment, health for wellbeing and education for awareness.

Fresh food is another of Serenbe’s natural assets, with a 25-acre organic farm, seasonal Saturday Farmer’s Market, thriving CSA program and edible landscaping, including blueberry bushes along paths and sidewalks.

Year-round cultural events include outdoor theater from Serenbe Playhouse, culinary workshops and festivals, music events, films and lectures, boutique shopping, art galleries, a spa and trail riding, plus a robust Artist in Residence program featuring dinners and talks. Serenbe is a place you can enjoy for a meal, a weekend or call home for a lifetime.

History

Serenbe founders Steve and Marie Nygren believe that if you want to change the world, start in your own backyard. The couple discovered the property now known as Serenbe on a weekend outing to introduce their children to the Georgia countryside in 1991. Weekend visits for Marie, Steve and their young daughters transformed their lives, and three years later they sold their Atlanta home and relocated full-time to Serenbe.

The vision for the community of Serenbe was born in an effort to protect the beautiful rural land just outside of Atlanta known as Chattahoochee Hill Country. The first house at Serenbe was built in 2004 and today the community is home to over 700 residents. Serenbe has won numerous awards including the Urban Land Institute Inaugural Sustainability Award, the Atlanta Regional Commission “Development of Excellence“ and EarthCraft named Serenbe the “Development of the Year.”

They say that if you want to change the world, you should start in your own backyard. If that’s so, then Serenbe is quite a beginning.

Celebrating The People Who Call Serenbe Home

14 years ago, the first residents moved to Serenbe

Neighbor Testimonials

Long before there were boutiques, outdoor plays, or a Saturday morning farmer's market full of local vendors, there were people who believed in the difference between what was and what would come. Lights, streets and homes transformed the forest, but the day someone showed up was the day we became a community.

In celebration of our 10-year anniversary, we honored our neighbors - the people who've made Serenbe what it is today. In a series of videos and images taken by professional photographer, and resident, Greg Newington, we captured tales of the paths that brought them here and the magic that made them stay.
