One of the world’s most sophisticated ski resorts has just stepped up a notch with the completion of a stunning new residence, which occupies an incredible location, overlooking the La Face piste. This chalet offers luxurious living, outstanding views, and superb wellness facilities.
This Chalet is one of four stunning new apartments in the residence. Sleeping up to 10 people in four bedrooms, this contemporary home is full of character and is a wonderful retreat for a ski-loving family or a group of friends.
Guests can ski directly back to the property, where skis and boots can be safely stored in the apartment’s dedicated ski room located on the ground floor. The Chalet is entered on the second floor of the building where a warm welcome awaits. Designed with impeccable attention to detail, the apartment exudes a love of the mountains and in particular ski-life through its use of rich, textured woods and stylish, playful décor.
The open plan kitchen, living and dining area occupy most of the floor space on this level. The space is sophisticated, yet comfortable and cosy, with a strong ski chalet ambience. A wood-burning fireplace is the focal point set in the far corner of the living room and a large, comfy sectional sofa with plenty of faux fur cushions and two poufs ensure there is a spot for everyone to put their feet up after a hard day on the slopes. From this vantage point guests can also drink in the dramatic mountain views through large windows and two sets of double glass doors which lead onto the balcony. In the warmer spring months, this will be the perfect place to enjoy the dying embers of the day.
Behind the living area is the well-equipped kitchen, which is sleek and functional with plenty of counter space for food preparation and plenty of storage to avoid clutter. There is a raised breakfast bar with four stylish bar chairs, perfect for breakfast on the go and kids’ suppers. The dining area adjoins the living room and here, a large, contemporary wooden table seats up to ten people. Ambient lighting over the table and kitchen bar ensures an intimate atmosphere, while ample use of wood, leather and iron throughout create a timeless, traditional-feeling space.
Taking the stairs down to the first floor level, guests will find themselves in the sleeping quarters. Four beautiful bedrooms sleep up to ten guests in comfort. The designer has maintained a mostly neutral palette in both the bathrooms and the bedrooms, adding layers with rich fabrics and textiles. Each room is named according to a local animal, and each animal features in a striking wrought-iron sculpture that is displayed on the wall behind each bed and created by a leading metal sculpter. Various skiing collectables and objects design arts add splashes of fun and colour.
The first bedroom is a double bedroom with en-suite shower room. It has glass doors leading out to the terrace which allow warming natural light to flood in. The second bedroom is another double bedroom with en-suite shower and a private toilet. The master double bedroom is the most spacious and features a desk and chair as well as a large bathroom with a separate shower. It also has terrace access though glass doors that warm the room with sunlight by day. All these rooms have mounted TVs. The fourth bedroom is a quad bunk room, sleeping up to four people in adult-sized beds. The hand-crafted bunk beds are exquisitely finished. This bedroom has an en-suite shower room and guests sleeping here have a dedicated WC located next to the room.
