DESCRIPTION
Dubimo exclusively presents an exceptional property, a true emblem of Champéry's architectural heritage.
First recorded in 1919 and likely built between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, this majestic traditional Champérolain chalet is among the most beautiful residences in the resort. Its monumental silhouette, long wooden galleries, immense roof, and authenticity have earned it a place on postcards and in a book dedicated to the most beautiful chalets in the municipality.
Facing due southwest, it benefits from spectacular views of the Dents du Midi and an absolutely tranquil environment. A true alpine refuge, it invites you to slow down, fully enjoy the mountains, and savor every moment in an exceptional natural setting.
The property currently comprises two independent apartments totaling approximately 140 m² of living space. The first is a spacious 4.5-room apartment of 84 m², while the second is a charming 2.5-room apartment of 56 m². A vast attic (galetas) offering remarkable potential allows for the creation of a third independent dwelling or the expansion of the main dwelling.
Between heritage, authenticity, and potential for evolution, this property is aimed at lovers of character chalets looking for a truly unique property in the heart of the Portes du Soleil.
