Property Description

Set in a sunny, elevated position above the picturesque village of Verchaix, this attractive individual chalet enjoys a wonderful south-facing orientation and beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. Built by a reputable local chalet company in 2005, the property reflects exceptional craftsmanship, quality materials, and a solid structural finish — a fine example of traditional alpine construction combined with modern comfort.

The upper floor comprises a mezzanine area, a generous bedroom, and a bathroom with WC, providing flexible space ideal for guests or family accommodation.

Outside, the property includes use of a private garden, providing a peaceful outdoor area surrounded by nature.

The chalet is ideally located just a 10-minute drive from the ski lifts of the Grand Massif, one of the largest ski areas in the French Alps, with excellent parking facilities available at the lifts. The access is quick and straightforward, making it easy to enjoy a full day on the slopes without hassle. The nearby resorts of Samoëns and Morillon offer a wide choice of ski hire shops, après-ski bars, cosy restaurants, and local entertainment, ensuring there’s plenty to enjoy both on and off the mountain.

Conveniently situated less than one hour from Geneva International Airport, the chalet offers easy access for both weekend escapes and longer stays. In addition to world-class skiing, the area boasts an extensive network of walking, hiking, and mountain biking trails that start just minutes from the property.

Combining comfort, quality, and an exceptional sunny setting, this charming chalet represents the ideal mountain retreat for outdoor enthusiasts — perfectly suited as a family home, holiday getaway, or investment property in one of the most sought-after areas of the Giffre Valley.
