Rhone Alps, Haute-Savoie, Chamonix, France

Ref. Chalet Hana - Chalet Hana is a stunning 6-bedroom property located in the quiet hamlet of Les Frasserands above Argentière. Built in 2000 using reclaimed stone and timber sourced from farmhouses in the Beaufortin region, it combines traditional Alpine style with exquisite artisanal craftsmanship. Set on a plot of nearly 3,800 m², it enjoys a calm, elevated position with open views across to the Mont Blanc massif and the Grands Montets ski area. Chalet Hana beautifully blends the classic with the contemporary; while the flagstones throughout the first floor were recovered from churches and châteaux in Burgundy, the heating system is brand new, featuring remotely controlled underfloor heating throughout.

The main living space features a 75 m² open space with high ceilings, a monumental granite fireplace spanning two metres, and a kitchen equipped with a La Cornue range. It opens onto a south-facing terrace and garden offering privacy and serenity, as does the master suite adjacent. On the first floor you'll find an ensuite bedroom hidden behind an 18th century Swiss mazot door as well as a mezzanine serving as a reading area/television room.

There is potential to build above the garages, adding an independent apartment, office space or gym/wellness area.
