Preserve Floor Plan – Desert Retreat (Indio, CA)

Approx. 2,011 Sq Ft | 2–3 Bedrooms | 2–2.5 Bathrooms | Den/Office | Covered Patio | 2-Car Garage

The Preserve is where space and flexibility really start to come together.

At just over 2,000 square feet, this layout gives you room to breathe — without feeling oversized or inefficient. It’s balanced, open, and designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining.

If you want a home that feels substantial but still manageable, the Preserve sits in a very strong position within the lineup.

What Makes the Preserve Stand Out

Expansive Open Living Area

The kitchen, dining area, and living room all connect in one continuous space.

The proportions matter here:

• A large central kitchen with island presence

• A defined dining area that doesn’t feel squeezed

• A wide living room that handles full furniture layouts

This is one of the first plans in the series where entertaining 8–10 people feels completely natural.

Dedicated Office / Den That Feels Separate

The Preserve includes a true office/den space positioned away from the primary suite.

This works extremely well for:

• A private home office

• A hobby room

• A media space

• Or conversion into a third bedroom (depending on options)

It’s large enough to feel intentional — not an afterthought.

Private Primary Suite Wing

The primary bedroom sits on its own side of the home, separated from guest areas.

Expect:

• A spacious sleeping area

• Generous walk-in closet

• Well-proportioned primary bath layout

The hallway buffering creates a quiet, tucked-away feel compared to smaller plans.

Smart Guest Bedroom Placement

The secondary bedroom sits near its own bath, positioned toward the front of the home.

That makes it ideal for:

• Visiting family

• Long-term guests

• A private suite-style feel without stepping up to the largest homes

It gives guests independence while keeping the primary suite private.

Who the Preserve Is Perfect For

• Buyers who want to cross the 2,000 sq ft threshold

• Full-time residents who need real living space

• Couples who host frequently

• Buyers who want flexibility without moving into Encore pricing

It often becomes the “sweet spot” plan — large enough to feel impressive, but not as expansive as Refuge or Encore models.

Structural Options to Consider

Depending on release and builder offerings, the Preserve may offer:

• Bedroom 3 configuration

• Den door style upgrades (French / double door look)

• Interior fireplace option

• Wet bar option (in certain configurations)

• Upgraded sliding door systems for stronger indoor-outdoor flow

• Owner’s bath variations, including accessibility-friendly shower designs

In this plan, layout decisions tend to impact long-term livability more than cosmetic upgrades.

My Take

The Preserve feels like the transition from “nice” to “comfortable.”

It gives you:

• A meaningful open-concept living space

• A real office

• Guest privacy

• Room to entertain

Without jumping all the way into the largest floor plans.
