It's an oasis of calm and solitude in the heart of the Palm Desert – for an ultra-private retreat to California, this home really hits the mark. With a sublime backdrop of the Santa Rosa mountains, a luscious green garden – complete with a swimming pool, jacuzzi, fire pit and an alfresco dining area – you'll be drawn to the great outdoors here. But, when you're not lying around in the backyard, spend time relaxing in the modern and breathable home with chic interiors, exposed beam ceilings, quirky animal print upholsteries and an egg-shaped swing seat. Start the day with your morning java around the sleek breakfast bar, while mapping out the day's adventure. Speaking of, you're just a twenty-two-minute drive from Coachella Valley and an eighteen-minute stroll to La Quinta's Old Town, so whether you're keen to explore the surrounding natural beauty or sample delicious South American cuisine, this location allows access to the best of both worlds.
