An exceptional double chalet built to the highest standards, set in one of Chamonix’s most sought-after locations, with uninterrupted panoramic views stretching from Col de Balme to Mont Blanc and Le Brévent.

With new regulations limiting the size of new builds in Chamonix, very spacious chalets are increasingly hard to find, only coming to market through rare resale opportunities. Set in the peaceful Les Praz neighbourhood, this double chalet is an unmissable opportunity, spanning 774 square meters (643 sqm of liveable space) on 2,091 sqm of landscaped gardens. Built in 2001 by renowned “Chalets Trappier” using traditional high-quality wood, local stone and a flagstone roof, the residence combines exquisite finishes, panoramic views and exceptional scale. 

The property comprises 11 bedrooms, including an independent one-bedroom apartment with private access, ideal for staff or guests. There is plenty of space to entertain and unwind with two large living areas, a dedicated TV room and a gym. The property also offers a workshop, two offices — one with cathedral ceilings — and a triple garage. At the center of the property, a large games room opens onto a 71 sqm terrace with panoramic views.

While the property features traditional Alpine exteriors, the interiors offer two distinct styles: one showcases aged wood throughout, whilst the other presents refined, high-quality timber finishes.

  • Located in sought-after Les Praz, 5-min walk from the Flegère gondola
  • 180° views of the entire Mont-Blanc range
  • High-quality construction and old wood finishes
  • One of the largest chalets in the Chamonix valley
  • Extensive storage and multiple gathering areas

New chalets of this size are no longer permitted in Chamonix, meaning only existing chalets can accommodate large families on this scale. With its 11 bedrooms, prime location in the heart of Les Praz, abundant entertaining space and spectacular 180° views, this is the ideal family chalet.

Investment potential

Under current construction regulations in Chamonix, delivering a chalet of this scale is no longer possible, making this a genuinely scarce opportunity. Its prime Les Praz setting, moments from the lift, supports strong rental demand and long-term capital resilience, while the generous plot and sweeping panoramic views secure lasting desirability in an increasingly constrained market.

About the location

Just a 5-minute walk from the Flégère cable car and the centre of Les Praz, the chalet enjoys immediate access to skiing, hiking and year-round mountain activities. Shops, restaurants and a bakery are all within walking distance. Facing the Mont Blanc massif, the property captures 180° views stretching from the Aiguille Verte to Mont Blanc, ensuring uninterrupted scenery in every season. A three-minute drive (or a 25-minute walk) brings you to the heart of Chamonix.

Buying guides

Where does your million go furthest in the French Alps?

A million euros in the French Alps buys something rarer than a property. It buys a position in one of the few markets on the continent where the fundamentals are genuinely irreversible.
