Seven-bedroom ski-in chalet in Chamonix

You are at Les Chavants, on the slopes that overlook the Chamonix valley. The hamlet is quiet, alpine pastures stretch around you, and yet Chamonix town centre is only fifteen minutes away. The Prarion cable car is three minutes by road. This balanced position makes all the difference: you have the mountain to yourself, without isolation.

The entire upper floor is the living space, beneath vaulted ceilings that follow the hundred-year-old timber frame. At the centre, a suspended fireplace with a wood stove creates a natural focal point where you gather after skiing or hiking. The sofas are deep, light arrives from the two terraces that overlook the valley. The contemporary kitchen opens onto this living area or closes behind glass doors according to your need for privacy. Table for fourteen guests, cosy television corner, billiards with views of the mountains, discreet desk for those who work remotely: each corner has its purpose, none is fixed.

The seven bedrooms are distributed across the floors, each with its own bathroom or private shower. The main suite has a bath and a walk-in shower. A family suite pairs a double bedroom with a children’s area offering three single beds, designed for multigenerational holidays. On the ground floor, an independent studio with a private entrance and kitchenette provides flexibility for staff or teenagers seeking autonomy.

The building retains its old beams and authenticity; the comfort you would expect from a contemporary rental is discreet but complete. Sauna to relax after exertion. Double garage and generous storage for skis, bicycles and equipment. Two terraces to enjoy views of the Mont-Blanc massif and the Aiguille du Midi.

Suits a large family or group of friends across several generations who seek the mountain without sacrificing wellbeing. In winter, experienced skiers can descend to the slopes and return uphill on skis in fine weather. In summer and autumn, it is the ideal base for hiking, cycling, exploring the valley. Children have space, adults have quiet zones.
