With elevated views of the Coachella Valley and quick access to multiple desert cities, Desert Hot Springs is a sought-after bedroom community. Of course, a bedroom community needs homes, and although the recession of a decade ago squashed new construction for a time, things are looking up. Skyborne, a partially finished housing development three miles west of downtown, is set to resume construction. Other projects in the works include Marbella Villas, a 25-acre, 402-condominium complex; Rolling Hills by Watermarke Homes, which consists of 16 single-family homes; and Tuscan Hills, an ambitious planned development of 1,800 homes by the Walton Group.
