The Gallery at Indian Palms: Floor Plans & Buyer Guide
Explore The Gallery’s single-story homes in Indio: compare six floor-plan layouts, suite options, current builder pricing, HOA dues, and the details to verify before buying.
The Gallery at Indian Palms Country Club brings newer single-story homes into an established golf-course community in Indio. Its floor plans offer several ways to balance everyday living with an office or space for guests. This guide walks through the layouts, homesites, pricing, and ownership details so you can compare the homes with a clearer sense of what will work for you.
- Single-story homes in Indio: The Gallery is a newer collection inside Indian Palms Country Club, with a choice of office, bedroom, and suite layouts.
- Explore six layouts: compare Residence One, One X, One XX, Two, Three, and Four with large floor-plan drawings and downloadable builder PDFs.
- More space with the suite options: the builder publishes a range of roughly 1,530–2,268 square feet. One X has conflicting size labels that need confirmation.
- HOA dues currently advertised at $273 per month: confirm the complete charges, amenity access, solar terms, and property tax details for the home you choose.
- Rental flexibility needs a property-level check: association approval and an active City of Indio permit matter when evaluating short-term rental use.

Understanding The Gallery
The Gallery gives buyers a way to compare newer construction within an established country-club setting. The appeal is straightforward: single-story living, flexible rooms, and homesites along the golf course, with the larger Indian Palms community around them.
Gallery Homes is the builder. When comparing its homes, I would start with three decisions: how you will use the extra room, which lot feels right at different times of day, and what the home costs after all the options and ongoing charges are included.
This page focuses on The Gallery’s homes. For the broader setting, amenities, HOA structure, and resale market, read my Indian Palms Country Club Home Buying Study Guide.
Explore the floor plans
Choose a plan family or a suite option, then select a residence. The drawings show how rooms connect and which options replace existing spaces. Availability depends on the specific home and its stage of construction.
Residence One
- Base square feet
- 1,530
- Bedrooms
- 2–3
- Bathrooms
- 2
The smallest published base plan keeps the kitchen, dining area, and great room together, with the primary bedroom at the rear and the secondary bedroom near the entry.
How I would compare it: Start here if you want fewer rooms to furnish and maintain. Decide whether the flex room will be your everyday office or a third bedroom; those are different versions of the same space.
The current builder floor-plan sheet says approximately 1,530 sq. ft.; DOI’s earlier brochure photograph and the builder FAQ say 1,533. Confirm the measurement for the home you select.
Residence One X
- Base square feet
- Confirm size
- Bedrooms
- 2–3
- Bathrooms
- 2
One X changes the arrangement of the Residence One family, placing the primary bedroom beside the rear covered patio and the flex room farther forward.
How I would compare it: Compare the actual layout with One and One XX, especially the route from the bedroom to the patio and the distance between the two sleeping areas.
The earlier brochure photographed by DOI lists 1,695 sq. ft., while the builder’s currently linked One X PDF prints 1,530 sq. ft. These figures conflict. Ask Gallery Homes to confirm the correct plan revision and the square footage of the specific home before using either figure for price-per-square-foot comparisons.
Compare DOI’s earlier One X brochure photograph (1,695 sq. ft.).
Residence One XX
- Base square feet
- 1,764
- Bedrooms
- 2–3
- Bathrooms
- 2
One XX is the largest documented version in the Residence One family, with a long primary bedroom, covered rear patio, and an office/den or third-bedroom configuration.
How I would compare it: Tour this beside Residence Two. Check whether the added space is where you will use it most: your bedroom, furniture arrangement, storage, or space for visitors.
The builder sheet labels three bedrooms but also draws the office/den and optional Bedroom 3. The delivered room configuration depends on the selected home.
Residence Two
- Base square feet
- 2,008
- Bedrooms
- 2–3
- Bathrooms
- 2
Residence Two combines a larger kitchen and dining area with a rear primary suite and secondary rooms near the front of the home.
How I would compare it: This is a useful comparison if you want around 2,000 square feet and a den option. Check the living area with your furniture dimensions, then decide how often you need the third bedroom.
The builder markets a three-bedroom version with a den option; the drawing shows the alternate room arrangement. Confirm which version is included in the quoted home.
Residence Three
- Base square feet
- 1,996
- Bedrooms
- 3
- Bathrooms
- 2.5
Residence Three adds a powder room and a golf-cart area alongside the two-car garage. Its optional suite reworks Bedroom 3 and the golf-cart area.
With the optional suite: approximately 2,126 sq. ft.
How I would compare it: Start here when guest privacy matters. Compare the suite’s sitting/sleeping arrangement with the standard plan, and decide whether the extra living area is more useful than the cart storage.
The builder FAQ lists approximately 2,126 sq. ft. with the suite option. The office option replaces Bedroom 2; the suite option changes the golf-cart area. These choices are subject to the home’s construction stage.
Residence Four
- Base square feet
- 2,143
- Bedrooms
- 3
- Bathrooms
- 3
Residence Four has the largest base layout in this collection, three bathrooms, a rear primary suite, and a golf-cart area with an optional suite arrangement.
With the optional suite: approximately 2,268 sq. ft.
How I would compare it: Compare Four with Three when you want more separation for visitors and an additional full bathroom. Walk the circulation paths and check how the suite option changes storage and daily use.
The builder FAQ lists approximately 2,268 sq. ft. with the suite option. That larger area is an optional configuration; it is not the size of every Residence Four home.
Compare all six layouts at a glance
Approximate published areas and room configurations. Scroll sideways if needed.
| Layout | Base area | Rooms | Configuration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Residence One | 1,530 sq. ft. | 2–3 beds / 2 baths | Office / bedroom choice |
| Residence One X | Confirm size* | 2–3 beds / 2 baths | Office / bedroom choice |
| Residence One XX | 1,764 sq. ft. | 2–3 beds / 2 baths | Office / bedroom choice |
| Residence Two | 2,008 sq. ft. | 2–3 beds / 2 baths | Office / bedroom choice |
| Residence Three | 1,996 sq. ft. | 3 beds / 2.5 baths | 2,126 sq. ft. with suite |
| Residence Four | 2,143 sq. ft. | 3 beds / 3 baths | 2,268 sq. ft. with suite |
*One X: DOI’s earlier brochure lists 1,695 sq. ft.; the current builder PDF says 1,530. Confirm the correct figure. A den or office may occupy the space shown as a bedroom. The suite versions of Three and Four replace the golf-cart area.
My floor-plan test: imagine an ordinary morning with someone visiting. Can each person move between a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and patio comfortably? That exercise can reveal more than the total square footage.
Published pricing and builder incentives
On September 5, 2026, the builder’s residences page displayed the following starting figures. These are advertised builder prices, not closed-sale values or a live inventory feed.
| Residence | Advertised from | Before comparing |
|---|---|---|
| One | $498,200 | Identify the actual available home and included options. |
| One X / One XX | Request a current quote | No separate starting prices shown on the main residences page. |
| Two | $595,690 | Confirm the den or bedroom configuration. |
| Three | $584,968 | Confirm whether a suite is included or priced separately. |
| Four | $602,500 | Compare the exact lot and suite/garage arrangement. |
Ask for a written, home-specific quote showing the lot premium, installed upgrades, remaining choices, estimated completion, closing costs, and incentive conditions. If financing is part of the offer, compare the payment after any temporary benefit ends as well as the initial payment. The builder’s current sales website is the place to recheck its advertised promotions.
HOA, taxes, solar, and ownership costs
The builder FAQ currently lists $273 per month in HOA dues, describes the land as fee simple, and lists Sunrun solar equipment. Equipment on the roof does not, by itself, establish whether the system is owned, financed, leased, or subject to a power-purchase agreement.
The same FAQ publishes a 1.2245% property tax rate and a $1,441.11 annual assessment. Those two entries carry older update dates. Treat them as builder references to reconcile against the current parcel tax bill and title/escrow documents. Confirm whether the assessment is already included in any tax estimate before adding it again.
- HOA documents: request all applicable association dues, included services, transfer charges, and the current budget and reserve information.
- Property taxes: ask for a parcel-specific estimate, including direct assessments and any supplemental bill associated with the purchase or new construction.
- Solar agreement: review ownership, payments, production assumptions, warranties, and obligations that pass to the buyer.
- Remaining work: include landscaping, window coverings, pool or patio improvements, insurance, utilities, and maintenance in the comparison.
Short-term rentals: what to verify
The builder FAQ says the association’s CC&Rs allow short-term rentals. That is a starting point for due diligence, not a permit for an individual property.
Indio’s short-term rental ordinance requires a permit before advertising or operating, HOA documentation where applicable, and compliance with business-license and tax requirements. A permit does not transfer to a new owner. The ordinance’s definition covers stays of not more than 30 consecutive calendar days, so a 30-day stay should not be assumed exempt.
Before using projected rent to justify a purchase, confirm the property’s eligibility, approved bedroom count, occupancy and parking limits, guest amenity rules, and the buyer’s application process. Nearby festivals can change the experience of the neighborhood; visit during a busier period if noise, traffic, or guest turnover would affect your decision.
Community map and choosing a homesite
The builder map places The Gallery around the Royal Course’s sixth and seventh holes. Use it to compare the setting of a homesite, then walk the actual lot to evaluate sun exposure, privacy, cart traffic, nearby play, and the space behind the home.
Check the builder’s current homesite map. Maps and plan drawings are illustrative; lot dimensions, easements, and improvements should be confirmed in the property documents.
Home features and optional upgrades
The builder’s published feature list includes the following. Use the specifications attached to your purchase agreement to establish what is included in the particular home.
Outdoor living
Mediterranean and Traditional styling, concrete tile roofs, front landscaping, a rear barbecue gas stub, and covered porches or patios depending on the plan.
Kitchen and interiors
Shaker cabinetry, granite kitchen counters, island seating, Samsung appliances, task lighting, interior laundry, and tile in selected areas.
Energy features
Tankless water heating, Low-E glazing, LED lighting, programmable irrigation, and a solar system. Ask for the home’s actual specifications and solar contract.
Wiring and safety
CAT-6 wiring, selected USB outlets, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, fire sprinklers, and advertised home-automation features.
Make structural choices early. Converting an office to a bedroom or selecting a suite can affect privacy, storage, doors, and furniture placement. Confirm the builder’s cutoff dates and whether a completed home can still accommodate the change.

Ask for a current written option sheet before budgeting. Available combinations, prices, and construction deadlines may differ.
The Indian Palms setting
Indian Palms is a larger community with golf, recreation, dining, and a hotel. The golf operator describes 27 holes across the Mountain, Royal, and Indian nines, plus practice facilities.
The Lifestyle Center and other recreation facilities add another dimension to the community, but nearby amenities and access included with ownership are separate questions. Confirm the privileges attached to the Gallery home, including pool, fitness, tennis, pickleball, golf charges, and guest or tenant access.
For daily routines, test the drive to your usual shopping, work, and appointments. The builder lists Desert Sands Unified School District and nearby JFK medical facilities; confirm current school assignment directly if it matters to your purchase.
Frequently asked questions
What is The Gallery at Indian Palms Country Club?
It is Gallery Homes’ collection of detached, single-story homes inside the larger Indian Palms Country Club community in Indio. Compare the new-home purchase details here, then use the Indian Palms study guide for the wider community.
Which Gallery floor plans have a suite option?
Residences Three and Four offer a suite configuration that uses the golf-cart area and Bedroom 3. The builder lists approximately 2,126 and 2,268 square feet respectively with that option. Ask which configuration is available on the home you are considering.
How much are the HOA dues, and do buyers own the land?
The builder’s website lists $273 per month in HOA dues as of this September 5, 2026 review, and describes the homesites as fee-simple land. Get the property-specific HOA demand and title report to confirm ownership, all association charges, and included services.
Can I use a Gallery home as a short-term rental?
The builder advertises rental flexibility, but the specific property must satisfy its association rules and Indio’s permit requirements. The city requires HOA documentation where applicable, and an existing owner’s permit does not transfer to the buyer. Verify eligibility before relying on rental income.
How should I compare a builder home with an Indian Palms resale?
Match the layout and lot first, then compare the total cost: upgrades, landscaping, solar terms, HOA charges, taxes, insurance, and immediate repairs or improvements. For a builder incentive, compare the full loan terms and purchase price with the resale alternative.
Is The Gallery a good fit?
I would put The Gallery on a shortlist for someone who wants a newer single-story home and values the combination of indoor flexibility and a golf-course setting. The most useful next step is to compare two or three actual homes, including a resale alternative inside Indian Palms.
Bring your room requirements and your full monthly budget. I can help you compare the layouts, identify the ownership questions that still need answers, and look at the lot and surroundings with your day-to-day use in mind.
