About This Property

Chalet Belvédère is a striking contemporary chalet designed entirely around its exceptional outlook, enjoying spectacular and uninterrupted views over the Giffre Valley, the surrounding mountain ranges, and as far as Mont Blanc. Built in 2008, the property sits in a peaceful position in Verchaix on a generous total land area of 1781 m² and combines bold architecture with modern, energy-efficient systems. Every level has been carefully designed to maximise natural light, space, and the remarkable panoramic scenery, creating a home that feels both expansive and closely connected to its alpine environment.

The chalet offers 260 m² of habitable space and is arranged as three fully independent residential units, providing exceptional flexibility for family use, guest accommodation, or established rental income.

Although the chalet is laid out as separate units, solutions exist to allow a future buyer to create internal stairwells and transform the property into one stunning three-storey property.

The upper level is dedicated to a spacious duplex apartment. It comprises an entrance hall leading to an open-plan kitchen, dining area, and living room centred around a suspended fireplace, with direct access to a large terrace and balcony that fully embrace the views. This level also includes a double bedroom, a bathroom with both shower and bath, a separate WC, and a dedicated office space. A former garage has been converted into a practical storage and laundry area. Also on this level are a double garage with a storage mezzanine and two covered exterior parking spaces.

The intermediate level houses a second independent apartment. This apartment features an entrance, an open-plan living and dining area with a wood-burning stove and access to a large terrace, an open kitchen, a double bedroom, a second double bedroom with a bunk-bed area, a further double bedroom with an internal window, a shower room, a separate WC, and a pantry or utility room. On the same level, with its own private entrance, is an independent studio. The studio comprises a shower room with separate WC, a living space with a double bed and bunk beds, a kitchenette, a lounge area with a wood-burning stove, a dining area, and access to a private terrace.

The lower level of the chalet is dedicated to technical and practical spaces, including a technical room, a cellar, and a laundry area. From an ecological and energy-efficiency perspective, the property is particularly well equipped. Heating is provided by a high-performance combined system incorporating solar panels, a heat-exchange pump, and a Canadian well geothermal system, ensuring excellent thermal comfort while limiting energy consumption. The chalet also benefits from electric shutters throughout, further enhancing insulation, comfort, and security.

The exterior of the property has been comprehensively upgraded, with all exterior woodwork recently sandblasted and retreated, the masonry façades fully repainted in 2025, and the driveway and pathways resurfaced. As a result, the chalet is presented in excellent condition throughout and is entirely turnkey, ready to be occupied immediately without the need for further works.

With its multiple independent living spaces, generous terraces, strong ecological credentials, ample parking including a motorhome-sized garage, and commanding panoramic views, Chalet Belvédère is a rare and versatile property that successfully combines comfort, functionality, and sustainability in one of the Giffre Valley’s most desirable settings.

Chalet Samburu

For sale €795,000
5 Verchaix 152 m²

Chalet Samburu is a detached chalet in Verchaix. Its south-facing position gets excellent sunshine all year round, and it looks out across the Giffre Valley to the surrounding mountains. The chalet was built in 2006 on a plot of 811 m². It has approximately 120 m² of habitable space (152 m² total floor area) over three levels, with five bedrooms, four bathrooms and a fully independent apartment on the garden level. That gives a buyer a lot of sleeping space and flexible living in one property. The main living level is bright and open. A living and dining area with a fireplace leads into an open kitchen, which opens straight onto a sunny terrace and balcony. This level also has a bedroom with its own full bathroom and a separate WC. Upstairs, three further bedrooms sit beneath the eaves, along with two bathrooms and a mezzanine that works well as a home office or extra sleeping space for guests. A south-facing balcony makes the most of the sunshine and the views. The garden level is a fully self-contained apartment. It has its own living room, kitchen area, bedroom and shower room, and opens onto a very large terrace. It suits extended family, visiting friends or independent teenagers, and it also offers rental potential while the main chalet stays entirely separate. An attached, lockable garage provides secure parking and useful storage for skis and bikes. The chalet is currently rated E. A 2026 energy audit confirms that the building itself is well insulated, with no insulation works needed. The rating comes down to the electric boiler. Replacing it with an air-to-water heat pump connected to the existing underfloor heating would take the chalet to a B rating on its own. The full audit is available on request. The property is located on plot B3421 (811 m²) in a UC buildable zone (PLU 2021), lies within the blue and red natural risk zones of the PPR (2000) and is attached to mains drains.
