Our opinion
From the moment you step inside, you can feel the incredible care and quality the owners have put into this farmhouse. They built it for themselves using only the very best materials, and it shows. The space is truly impressive, with stunning double-height areas that reach up to the exposed beams. What really sets it apart is its position: high above Les Houches on a huge plot of protected land, it offers a feeling of complete privacy, along with fantastic views and the perfect spot to catch the last of the evening summer sun.
