5-bedroom apartment with sauna in Chamonix

At Chamonix, this chalet stands at the foot of the summits that dominate the valley, beneath the pines of the Brévent forest. The town centre is reached in a few minutes on foot, with its shops, cafés and access to the nearby ski lifts. Here, the silence of the woods quickly gives way to the bustle of the resort, without ever truly blending with it.

The house employs a sober aesthetic, softened by grey wood recovered from old chalets and by stone. Two living rooms, a library and a dining space flow around a sculptural fireplace that naturally brings guests together. The kitchen, fully equipped, suits both a simple meal and a more elaborate evening.

The indoor sauna closes the day after skiing, whilst the outdoor hot tub makes the most of clear evenings under the stars. The south-facing terraces and stone garden invite outdoor meals, complemented by a barbecue area designed for gatherings, summer and winter alike.

The five bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, focus on tactile materials, wool, wood and stone, which extend the atmosphere of the outdoors. The master bedroom, raised and south-facing, opens onto large windows fitted with automated curtains, to choose the hour of waking.

A ski room with boot warmers and a garage for two cars complete comfort designed for active stays. Breakfast and daily cleaning, bed linen included: the house suits a group of friends or an extended family coming to enjoy the mountain without its logistical constraints.
