About 50 m northeast are the remains of a Nabataean residence with more than 28 interrelated structures, including a Roman-style bathing suite. Constructed during the last phase of the temple, this Eastern Complex is believed to have been a palatial residence of a religious dignitary. Certain areas were probably designed for public use. The core of the villa consisted of two rectangular units, two courtyards, and a lobby area at the main entrance. The building used to be richly decorated with polychromed molded plaster.
