An area-affordable desert community near Cathedral City shopping centers
On the west side of the Coachella Valley, Dream Homes is a Cathedral City suburb where midcentury homes on expansive lots offer panoramic views of the San Jacinto and San Bernardino Mountains, as well as lower prices than in Palm Springs, about 5 miles west. “This is a family-oriented neighborhood with quick access to the best shopping and dining in Cathedral City,” says Amado Salinas II, Realtor with Re/Max Desert Properties. Nearby shopping centers include Gene Autry Plaza and The Springs. Though Dream Homes' vibe is generally tranquil, airplane noise can be regularly heard from the neighboring Palm Springs International Airport. State Route 111 is just west, offering easy access to parks, golf courses and highly rated schools, as well as Downtown Palm Springs.
