Chamonix, Haute-Savoie, Rhone Alps, France

*Last unit in this highly successful project, construction works ongoing, delivery guaranteed for Christmas 2024*

Discover this top-floor duplex penthouse in Les Houches, the last apartment available in a highly successful project set to be delivered at the end of 2024. With breathtaking views over the whole Chamonix and a slopeside location, it represents an incredible opportunity to own a piece of this majestic valley.

About the Location

Les Houches is one of the villages that make up the Chamonix valley. Made of a variety of tiny hamlets, les Houches lies at the foot of the Mont Blanc and provides amazing views. A charming and family-friendly place, les Houches is particularly known for being a regular host of the International World Cup on its black piste, the famous Verte des Houches. Summer is equally lively in the Chamonix valley with plenty of activities organised by the Town Hall and a real town feel, allowing great rental returns all year.

Just a three-minute walk from the Prarion ski lift and 250m away from Bellevue, the new-build project benefits from an extraordinary ski-in setting with amazing views over the surrounding mountains. All amenities are available in Les Houches including a grocery store, a ski shop, ski rentals and a boulangerie, all at just a few minutes' walk. The centre of Chamonix is only at a 10-minute drive from the project.

About the Property

This last apartment for sale, in a 55-apartment brand new residence, is a duplex penthouse located at the two top floors. It offers 100 sqm of liveable area, with 3 bedrooms and a large open-plan living area. The living room opens onto a West-facing balcony and a large South-facing terrace with breathtaking views over the whole valley and Mont-Blanc range.

Very well priced compared to the rest of the Chamonix valley, especially in the centre, this collection of apartments has it all. In addition to its great location and views, all properties feature exterior space and have access to an array of on-site facilities such as a swimming pool, spa, gym, bicycle storage, ski lockers and a conciergerie service.

Investment Potential

All these assets will help to assure these properties perform well on the rental market with estimated rental yields of sometimes higher than 5% net.

As new-build property, the notary fee is reduced to 2% and you will have the opportunity to reclaim the VAT from the purchase price if you decide to rent it out when you are not in residence, saving you 20%.
