Val-d`Isère, Savoie, Rhone Alps, France

Every property in this development crosses my desk, and this penthouse is one I know well. It sits in the same Joseray project I've personally chosen to buy into, which should give you a strong sense of how highly I rate the developer, the design, and above all, the location. If you're considering a high-end home in Val d'Isère, this one deserves a closer look.

This top-floor penthouse offers 177.7 m² of interior space, positioned to take in uninterrupted views across both the Massif du Solaise and the Manchet Valley. The development is almost sold out, with completion expected in Autumn 2027, and is being built by a respected local developer with a proven track record for quality, thoughtful layouts and beautifully balanced Alpine architecture.

Inside, the layout has been designed with modern mountain living in mind: generous open-plan living and dining areas, a fully equipped kitchen, five double bedrooms, a fireplace, and a spacious balcony/terrace. Natural materials and elegant Alpine detailing bring warmth and timelessness to the interior palette.

The setting is one of its biggest assets. Close to the resort centre and the foot of the ski slopes yet comfortably removed from the busiest part of town, Joseray offers that rare blend of convenience and calm. It's a part of Val d'Isère that consistently appeals to buyers who value both lifestyle and long-term resilience - which is exactly why I chose it for my own home.

Climate Change, the question I get asked most often:

"Is my investment safe?"

My honest answer: Yes.

Climate change is reshaping the ski industry, but in the very best, highest-altitude resorts, it is actually strengthening long-term property values.

Here's why:

Lower-altitude resorts are the most affected by warmer winters.

Demand is concentrating into snow-sure, high-altitude destinations.

To stay resilient, a resort needs:
* a village above 1,800 m
* skiing above 3,000 m (ideally with a glacier)
* strong year-round lifestyle infrastructure

Val d'Isère and Tignes have all three, which is why they remain among the most reliable ski destinations in the Alps.

At the same time, the number of UHNW buyers grows each year, while the number of genuinely snow-secure resorts shrinks. That dynamic is pushing demand and values upward in places like Val d'Isère.

So while climate change is a real challenge for the ski world, here it is reinforcing long-term value rather than weakening it.

If you'd like to understand whether this penthouse fits your search, give me a call. I'm happy to share a clear, honest view and, if it feels like the right match, organise a site visit in person or via video.
