Rare To The Market — 5 Bedroom Apartment

With its 600 km of interconnected pistes, the 3 Valleys ski area has remained, for more than half a century, the world reference for great Alpine skiing — a high-altitude geography where guaranteed snow meets an unmatched diversity of terrain, from the spruce forests of the valley floor to glaciers rising above 3,200 metres.
At the very centre of this ski area, equidistant from all its hubs, Méribel enjoys a uniquely strategic position. Faithful since 1938 to its architectural charter, the resort cultivates an art of living where elegance is whispered rather than declared: weathered timber, lauze stone, rigorous architectural lines. Less than 2 km away, its altiport makes it one of the very few Alpine destinations directly accessible by private aviation.
Within Méribel itself, one neighbourhood has gradually established itself as the most coveted address: the Rond-Point des Pistes. It is here, at the junction of the Saulire and Plattières cable cars, that all ski returns from the entire area converge, within an intimate residential setting, just steps from the boutiques and the finest tables of the resort.
And it is precisely at this address that this very high-end residence stands, delivered in 2021. Patinated old wood, local stone, exposed timber framing, bespoke finishes: traditional in its language, resolutely contemporary in its execution. Residents enjoy a true private wellness area with jacuzzi, sauna, hammam, massage cabins and a fitness and sport room, complemented by an upscale concierge service.
It is on the 4th floor of this residence that the property now offered for sale unfolds. Spread over 260 sqm of living space and extended by more than 42 sqm of south-east-facing balconies suspended above the Rond-Point des Pistes, the uninterrupted view embraces the ski area, the forest and the peaks. Inside, the tone is set from the entrance: old timber essences and French-style ceilings, raw stone walls, solid oak floors. The 80 sqm through-living room is organised around a fireplace, articulating a generous sitting area, a large dining room and a separate fully-equipped kitchen; a separate television lounge further extends the living space.
On the sleeping side, the apartment accommodates up to 12 guests in hotel-grade comfort. A master suite on the upper level, featuring a freestanding bathtub facing the slopes, a stone-clad bathroom and direct balcony access, forms its centrepiece. It is complemented by 3 double bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom, as well as a bunk room with bunk beds, ideal for children. Beyond the residence’s facilities, the property also reserves for its occupants a true private spa with sauna, hammam and yoga room — a rare luxury at this level.
Two covered parking spaces, a ski locker with boot dryers, a fully-equipped laundry room and an entrance vestibule complete this exceptional ensemble. The sale will be carried out as a transfer of going concern, the furnished rental activity with parahotel services being currently operated within the property.
