Solitude Floor Plan – Desert Retreat (Indio, CA)

Read more about this resourceDetails, local context and useful information.

Approx. 1,650 Sq Ft | 2 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms | Den | Covered Patio | 2-Car Garage | Single-Level

The Solitude sits right in the middle of the Classic Series lineup — and for many buyers, it becomes the smart choice.

It’s larger than the Getaway, more flexible than you’d expect at this size, and still efficient enough to maintain comfortably. If you want a home that feels practical but not tight, the Solitude delivers that balance.

What Makes the Solitude Work

Open Main Living Space

The living room, dining area, and kitchen are connected in a clean, straightforward layout.

This plan allows:

  • A full-size living room setup

  • A dedicated dining area (not just a corner nook)

  • A kitchen that anchors the home naturally

The square footage is used well. There’s very little wasted hallway space.

Dedicated Den / Office

Unlike the smallest plan in the series, the Solitude includes a real den near the front of the home.

This space works well as:

  • A home office

  • A reading room

  • A media space

  • Or overflow guest space

For full-time residents, that extra room changes how the home lives.

Smart Bedroom Separation

The primary suite is positioned on one side of the home, while the secondary bedroom sits on the opposite wing.

That layout gives:

  • Privacy for guests

  • Quiet work-from-home flexibility

  • A more comfortable daily flow

For a 1,650 sq ft plan, this separation makes the home feel larger than it is.

Comfortable Primary Suite

The primary bedroom includes:

  • A generous sleeping area

  • Walk-in closet

  • Private bath layout

It’s functional, clean, and easy to furnish.

Who the Solitude Is Perfect For

  • Buyers downsizing from a larger home

  • Couples who want a den but don’t need 2,000+ sq ft

  • Seasonal residents wanting flexibility

  • Buyers focused on value per square foot

It often becomes the upgrade choice for people who like Getaway but want a little more breathing room.

Structural Options to Consider

Depending on release and availability, Solitude may offer:

  • Den door style upgrades (French or double-door look)

  • Kitchen layout variations

  • Upgraded sliding door options to the patio

  • Owner’s bath configuration upgrades

On this floor plan, den configuration and patio door upgrades tend to make the biggest impact.

A few useful answers.

What can I explore in the 55+ resource collection?

Explore communities through their amenities, recreation, neighborhood features and homes. Individual resources help you get to know one part of a community; the buying guides bring the larger picture together.

Does a 55+ label tell me every rule for the home?

Use it as a starting point for research. Request the current governing documents and confirm occupancy, age verification, guest and rental rules with the association for the specific home or section.

Is everything at the clubhouse included in the HOA?

Ask for an itemized explanation. Association services, private-club membership, golf and special programs can have different access terms and charges. The community buying guide helps you know which questions to ask.

How can I find more resources for the same community?
