About this property
Private Oasis in Indian Wells
My home welcomed its first guest December, 2013. I took it off the site for four years and after an update, it is now available again. If you are looking for a luxury home for your desert experience, this is it!
Well known designer, Marc Blackwell, practicing in the desert and in New York, refreshed the house to bring it to a more contemporary and updated level. From Marc Blackwell: "Jo is so committed to the comfort of her guests that her concern is about keeping everything pristine, completely stylish and up dated. It was a pleasure help her with those goals."
Situated in the heart of an upscale residential neighborhood of Indian Wells. This home is a short distance from the Palm Springs International Airport, centrally located among the other desert communities, restaurants, golf courses, shopping and home to the Tennis Garden. This property is only available for long term leases with a minimum of one month.
Inside the home you will enjoy the open floor plan, accented with handmade oriental carpets, which opens to the outdoor space, creating one large living area. The primary suite has a king size bed, TV, en-suite bath with a tub and separate shower, a large walk-in closet and has French doors which open to the outdoor living space. The junior suite has a queen size bed, TV, en-suite bath with a large shower and a spacious walk-in closet. The third bedroom space is set up as a den which easily converts to a bedroom with a queen sleeper sofa. The den is ready for a work space, hanging out watching tv, or additional sleeping space with a roomy walk-in closet. All walk-in closets have sets of drawers.
The home is equipped, outdoors as well as indoors, for a luxury stay. Several French doors open from the main house to join the indoors living space to the outdoor living space which boasts a lovely private salt water spa and pool situated in a spacious tropical paradise with a southern exposure. Arranged on outdoor area rugs, comfortable and stylish outdoor furniture, dining set, outdoor fire pits, and a gas grill provide an additional covered living space to settle into on our beautiful desert days and evenings.
The property has stylish and sophisticated decor throughout, a gourmet kitchen which includes a professional gas range, a Sub Zero refrigerator, as well as, multiple small appliances. The kitchen offers the items needed to entertain groups of friends or intimate dinners for two. Several LeCreuset items are available to use for your favorite dishes. An additional refrigerator is located in the spacious three car garage which has a clean epoxy floor. Right off the kitchen is a separate laundry room that has a front loading washer and a front loading dryer.
You are sure to have wonderful memories after your time in the desert.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Jo Chatalas

I am retired and have returned to Seattle, WA where my only child, a daughter, was raised and now resides with her husband and my grandchildren. I was raised in a little community in Eastern Washington. I attended WSU and graduated with a degree in Education. I married and moved to Seattle, WA. I also attended SU during my career for two master degrees, Curriculum Development and School Administration.
I moved to the desert from Seattle in 1998, after my daughter graduated from high school and entered Santa Clara University. I had worked for the Seattle Public Schools for 28 years.
I found an empty building lot in Indian Wells and I had my home designed and built. I moved into my new home in 2000.
I retired from the Desert Sands School District after working an additional 12 years. I did not plan to return to Seattle, but with the first announcement of a pregnancy, I couldn't return fast enough.
I now enjoy almost daily interactions with my two precious boys.
Having guests stay at my home has been such a pleasant experience. Each of my guests have treated my home as their own and I have met the most wonderful, thoughtful people. I come to the desert to meet each guest at their arrival and make myself available 24/7 for any questions or concerns.

Why they chose this property
My home is located in an un-gated, safe and quiet neighborhood.
The way in which my home is situated on the property, makes my home a VERY private setting, with a large backyard and a view of Mount Eisenhower. If your priorities include safety, quietness and privacy, you have found the perfect home to stay.

What makes this property unique
I did a lot of research before deciding where I wanted to live. Indian Wells is the safest community in the desert. We have more policeman and fireman per capita, as well as, the lowest crime rate in the desert.
