Sylvestre

Views / outdoor soaking tub / outdoor shower / pet friendly

Sylvestre at Masseria Morongo is a 3-bedroom retreat between Joshua Tree and Palm Springs with mountain views, a heated cowboy tub, and outdoor soaking tub and shower. The 3-bathroom home is guided by Passive House principles. Sliding doors open the modern interiors to the desert. Outside, a soaking tub and shower and a generous dining table invite slow rituals and starry nights.

Good to Know

Masseria Sylvestre is a newly built modern home set on five private acres between Joshua Tree and Palm Springs. Informed by Passive-led architecture and design, Sylvestre was created with both sustainability and serenity in mind. The airtight, energy-efficient build creates an environment that’s quiet, thermally balanced, and deeply calming, a cocoon-like space that shaped every design choice. Natural materials like stone and untreated wood give the home a grounding, organic feel.

- Built utilizing Passive House principles

- 3 bedrooms / 2.5 bathrooms

- Spacious open-plan living with sliding doors to the outdoors

- Fully equipped kitchen and indoor dining area

- Private bedrooms designed as calming sanctuaries

- Cowboy pool for refreshing dips (can be heated like a hot tub)

- Large outdoor dining table for meals and gatherings

- Outdoor soaking tub and shower for open-air self-care rituals

- Built-in BBQ and multiple seating areas to relax and gather

Inside the Home:

An open-plan living space anchors the home, with clean lines, warm textures, and large sliding doors that open directly to the desert. The modern kitchen is fully equipped and flows into the dining area, making it easy to cook and gather. Each bedroom was designed as a private sanctuary with soft linens, calming tones, and thoughtful details. Bathrooms continue the spa-like feel, with elegant finishes and space to slow down.

Outdoor Living:

Sylvestre’s outdoor spaces immerse you in the desert landscape. Cool off in the cowboy pool, linger at the large outdoor dining table, or watch the colors change from dawn to dusk. For deeper restoration, an outdoor soaking tub and shower invite you to bathe beneath the open desert sky.

The Setting:

With panoramic views of mountains and open desert, the property feels private yet accessible—a short drive to Joshua Tree National Park, Palm Springs, and local desert gems. Whether you’re here to explore, gather, or simply recharge, Sylvestre offers a grounding and unforgettable desert escape.
