Good to Know

Natural materials like stone and untreated wood give the home a grounding, organic feel.

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.
