Situated amongst the rocky hills of the Coachella Valley is Villa Palm Seco, a nearly 11,000-square-foot retreat that blends flawlessly into its scenic surroundings. Represented by Michelle Schwartz and Adrienne Herkes, this 10-bedroom, 10.5-bathroom compound spans more than 18 acres, promising privacy and the kind of unique solace that can only be found in the desert. Set within the ultra-private Royal Carrizo enclave, this gated estate is designed for inspired living and deep restoration.
Inside the chic, white-washed space, worldly details set this home apart. Recessed alcoves and arched wall niches echo Mediterranean influence, while textured flooring and inlaid rock patterns bring in a bit of Southwestern spirit. Curved columns and walls create a sculptural feel, further reflected in the home’s many art pieces. Modern, organic minimalism is the through-line of Villa Palm Seco, letting the landscape just outside the wide, wooden-framed doors do the talking.
Each of the sanctuary-like bedrooms is thoughtfully positioned to frame breathtaking views across the Coachella Valley. The spaces are airy and comforting, with muted tones, wooden accents, and layers of inviting texture.
This Palm Desert compound comprises three residences that span the hillside, featuring multiple terraces, open-air dining areas, a cozy movie theater, a private tennis court, and a resort-style pool and spa. Each building is cohesive in design, comfort, and functionality, creating a picturesque setting for gatherings of all types and sizes.
The grounds outside the Villa create an oasis within the scrubby foothills of the San Jacinto Mountains, landscaped with native trees and bushes that create a sense of lushness within the desert setting. All of the features within the estate reflect the colors and shapes of the surrounding landscape, from rocky pathways and textured walls to minimal, clean-lined design.
Offering unmatched versatility, Villa Palm Seco can serve as a restorative off-grid escape, a creative retreat, a family compound, or an investment/development opportunity. Located 20 minutes from Palm Desert and 45 minutes from Palm Springs, this estate provides world-class desert living—a retreat that presents proximity to everything, while feeling a world away.
