Six-bedroom chalet near the slopes in Chamonix

You are in Chamonix, at Les Houches, a few steps from Prarion. The chalet sits in a large garden of 1500m2 that slopes gently downwards. From arrival, it is the space that strikes you, and this sense of being able to breathe. The terrace faces the Mont-Blanc range, and the slopes are so close that you see them from here. A few minutes on foot, and you are at the top of the domain.

The interior follows a contemporary, sober and bright approach. The 6 bedrooms are distributed across the levels with clear logic. The living spaces occupy the ground floor and open wide onto the terrace, while the bedrooms each have room to breathe at their own level. Generous volumes, large windows and natural light create a serene atmosphere as soon as you step inside. This is a chalet that does not darken in late afternoon.

The garden is a true additional room. You install the barbecue table there, you watch the children run around in it, you settle in the evening when the sun lingers. It allows a group of 10 people to live without getting in each other’s way, and gives the stay a quality that walls alone cannot offer.

This chalet suits a large family or a group of friends who want to stay mobile. Sleep here, ski at Prarion in the morning, explore the domain in the afternoon. It is also a base for those who love the mountains in summer, when the garden becomes a refuge and the slopes turn into hiking trails.
