At the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the house sits low against the foothills, almost blending into them. The mountains rise quickly behind it, present, not distant. The lot stretches wide, about an acre and a half, offering space that feels removed without ever feeling isolated. Desert landscaping frames the approach with sculptural cacti, natural stone, and a gradual reveal of the home as you arrive. It’s calm here. Still. Occasionally, wildlife passes through the area, a quiet reminder of how closely the property is tied to its surroundings.

Inside, the layout is open but intentionally scaled. The living room anchors everything, clean lines, direct access to the outdoors, and a bar tucked just off to the side that makes the space feel social without being overstated. Natural light moves easily throughout, and glass doors slide open to soften the boundary between indoors and out. A separate media room offers a more enclosed setting, designed for slower evenings when the pace naturally shifts.

The bedrooms are arranged with privacy in mind, each with its own outdoor access. Mornings begin outside rather than in a hallway, creating a different rhythm to the day. The primary suite is the most expansive, featuring a sitting area, fireplace, and a sense of scale that feels more like a private retreat than a traditional bedroom. Materials and finishes remain consistent throughout, comfortable, refined, and thoughtfully chosen.

Outdoors, the property opens fully. The pool and spa sit at the center, surrounded by clean hardscape and framed by palms and desert plantings. A rock waterfall introduces movement without overwhelming the space. Around it, multiple areas emerge organically: a shaded pergola lounge, dining spaces that shift with the sun, and open areas designed for gathering. Additional features, including a five-hole putting green, a separate lit driving practice area, and a mini golf setup, add a more relaxed, recreational layer to the grounds. Toward the edges, a citrus orchard and a rose garden soften the landscape and add depth.

The location is straightforward. Indian Canyons hiking trails are very close, some within roughly a block, others a short drive, offering a shift from open desert terrain to dense palm groves and seasonal water features. Indian Canyons Golf Resort is nearby, along with Palm Springs’ broader dining and design scene. What stays with you, though, is the property itself, the quiet, the scale, and the way the home settles into the landscape without competing with it.
