This historic Engadine house, a true symbol of regional architectural tradition, was fully renovated between 2012 and 2013 by architect Hans-Jörg Ruch. The renovation has skillfully combined the charm of the past with modern requirements. Some of the house’s architectural elements date back to the 15th, 17th, and 18th centuries, highlighting its long history.
The Sulèr (entrance hall) and the Palantschin (attic) date back to the 17th century. The house likely took its present form in the 18th century when the barn was added, and the roof was made uniform across the entire property, giving it the current volume and layout.
Inside, great care has been taken to preserve the historical authenticity of the house. The medieval walls and 17th and 18th-century features have been meticulously cleaned or restored. Some rooms feature wood from Engadine pines and Swiss larches, while the solid wood floors throughout are made from Engadine pine, adding a natural warmth to the interiors.
The house comprises 14 rooms, including 3 original Stüvas (traditional living rooms) and 8 bedrooms with 7 bathrooms. The Stüvas provide a warm and welcoming space typical of the region. The bedrooms are spacious and each has its own en-suite bathroom, ensuring privacy and comfort. The 7 bathrooms are elegantly designed with high-quality materials.
This property is a perfect blend of historical charm and modern comfort, offering an exclusive retreat for those seeking a home with a rich history and contemporary amenities.
