Inside a Stylish, Off-Grid Desert Escape Seeking $4.2M Near Palm Springs

With the fast-paced lifestyle of today where anything and everything seems to be documented on Instagram and TikTok, it may feel like the world is watching your every move—especially for celebrities. For those—celebs and “regular people” alike—looking for a private escape near Palm Springs, a listing off the beaten path has popped on the market. It’s independent and off-grid with solar panels, a high-volume well, and more.

Like a chameleon, the residence blends into the nearby boulders and its desert surroundings. The home was completed just last year, with architectural and design work by Paul and Wendy Hadley. Cedar siding, a Corten steel roof, and steel-framed windows offer a sleek design while honoring a strong sense of place. The interiors exude a modern rustic vibe, featuring wood beams and cedar-plank walls paired with luxury finishes.

The 2,280-square-foot home has two bedroom suites, each with its own full bathroom and private patio. The 10-acre property includes a two-car garage with a flex space.

The listing is located in Pioneertown, which was originally founded as an Old West-style town by Hollywood investors. The locale is no longer used for filming but instead is a wellness destination in its own right, with spas and boutiques.

For those looking to get off the grid, Keith Markovitz of TTK Represents of Compass & Clayton Baldwin of Kinetic Properties share the $4.2 million listing.
