Chalet Alpina

This chalet was built in 1946 and designed by Maurice Novarina, a renowned French architect. It is situated on a sloping plot offering a fabulous south-facing view of the Risse valley and the Roc d’Enfer. The property has been recently renovated to a high standard while preserving the integrity of the architect’s original design.
The ground floor includes an entrance hall opening onto the living/dining room with both a fireplace and a wood stove. There are French doors leading to a beautiful veranda, perfect for dining and enjoying the lovely view. The living room features 4 bay windows. This floor also includes an office, a toilet, and a kitchen with an internal staircase leading to the pantry and cellar.
The first floor consists of 5 bedrooms (the 3 largest with French doors opening onto a balcony) and two modern bathrooms. Above this floor, there are two newly created attic bedrooms accessed by a ladder.
At the lowest level, the cellar also has exterior access and windows for natural light. There is a laundry room and a large pantry. The pellet boiler (installed in 2019) and wood are stored there.
There is an original single garage built into the slope beneath the chalet with steps connecting the two. There is approximately 3800 m2 of land around the chalet, part of which is wooded. The roof and gutters were replaced about +/- 20 years ago. The most recent renovation includes double glazing, insulation, new electricity, a new septic tank, a 3000L water tank, and the installation of solar panels. Clearing the land to expose the views, extending the parking area, and adding a carport are also part of the latest improvements made to this fabulous property.
This house could be completely self-sufficient with the addition of a battery for the solar panels. The surrounding land is non-buildable, ensuring peace and tranquility. There are plans for a potential extension, and these architect’s plans are included in the sale.
This chalet combines a wonderful sense of isolation while being close to ski resorts (for example, Hirmentaz is a 3-minute drive away, and the Portes du Soleil and Grand Massif are 45 minutes by car). The local villages of Bellevaux and Lullin have all the shops you need, Thonon-les-Bains and the lakeside are 25 minutes by car, and Geneva airport is just 55 minutes away.
