Map & Owner's Profile
Euro-Style Villa in Exclusive South Palm Desert
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
The Coachella Valley offers many desert activities. The Baron's chose a private home in South Palm Desert because of the close proximity to all the events in the area; it is in the center of the valley with Palm Springs a few miles north and La Quinta a few miles south. Palm Desert is a progressive desert town that is home to several colleges; the well known shopping and restaurant district of El Paseo; the famous animal and desert preserve-The Living Desert; a huge municipal park with lighted tennis courts, picnic areas, volleyball and lush landscaping; the magnificent Desert Willow public golf course and several large natural desert preserves. This home; within a quiet, private neighborhood, is 1 to 3 miles from of all these activities.
The Unique Benefits at this Private Home
This home is a small resort within itself. Four sets of French doors open onto a beautiful backyard featuring a built-in bar-b-que, pool, spa, lush landscaping and an outdoor fireplace. Surrounding this home is a quiet neighborhood of unique homes and meandering streets that lends itself to morning or evening strolls. Less than a mile away is the famed El Paseo shopping district which is an enjoyable walk or bike ride away. If a vacation means having few reasons to drive, this is an ideal home.
A wildlife and desert preserve featuring acres of desert animal and plant habitat, activities and tours. Visit www.livingdesert.org
An area several blocks long featuring top restaurants, art galleries and unique shopping

Owner's Map of Private Homes
Alan and Jane live in Sonoma County wine country when not spending time in their Palm Desert vacation home. Alan is an ER physician in Santa Rosa and Jane is a fine art photographer and is active in art galleries in Sonoma County. Their home is decorated with many pieces of original art work; some reflecting the Northern California wine country and other pieces highlighting the beauty of the desert. Jane and Alan are avid travelers and have been using VRBO as a source for their own vacations. They purchased this home in 2007 and beautifully furnished it with the intention to retire there in the near future. Until then, they are offering it as a home for others looking to find that perfect desert vacation home.
