About the property

Morning Dove by Homestead Modern is an architectural masterpiece set on 20 pristine acres at the literal edge of Joshua Tree National Park. This one-of-a-kind rammed earth estate dissolves the boundaries between luxury and the raw Mojave, offering a sophisticated sanctuary for those seeking deep connection, high-end design, and unmatched desert silence.

Constructed from the very granite soil upon which it sits, this 7,000 sq. ft. estate is a marvel of sustainable design and organic elegance. The property balances the thermal permanence of rammed earth walls with expansive floor-to-ceiling glass, creating a living experience that feels both ancient and futuristic - a true desert fortress of comfort and light.

INSPIRATION & RAMMED EARTH
During a soul-searching road trip to the Joshua Tree area, the owners stayed a few nights at the 29 Palms Inn and decided to build something extraordinary in the area. It was important to them to be connected to the outside at all times in the house, while also being protected from the extreme elements and to build a healthy environment that fosters a connection to the Mojave.

Rammed earth is an ancient construction method seen in Europe, New Zealand, Africa and drier climates and uses a combination of native materials, a binding agent and colorant to mix into the material by batch. For Morning Dove, the owners took the soil from this property, which is mostly granite, screened it to get the consistency they wanted and mixed it with specific colored mortars. The mixture is poured into forms and compacted by a tamper. Once the first layer was completed, the forms were moved, and the process was repeated. This type of sustainable design does not exist anywhere in the California high-desert.

The property and the home itself far exceeded both my family’s expectations and mine. There was ample space for us to gather and spend time together, along with plenty of private areas to retreat to when needed. The fully equipped kitchen had everything we could have asked for—and more; we even hosted a private chef one evening, and she found it perfectly stocked for her needs. We also experienced some memorable wildlife encounters on the property, including a rattlesnake one night, a kangaroo rat another, and frequent visits from lizards, roadrunners, and quail. Each evening, we could hear coyotes and owls in the distance, which added to the atmosphere. We were pleasantly surprised by how close the home was to the entrance of Joshua Tree National Park, which was the main reason for our trip. Overall, we had a wonderful time stepping away from our busy routines to relax and enjoy quality time together. We can’t recommend Morning Dove highly enough.

The most beautiful home I've ever stayed in. Incredible location and views. And really attentive service and support by the management team. I left something with deep personal significance at the house and they found it and shipped it to me immediately. Would love to come back for a special occasion <3
