Description

In the heart of the Abondance Valley, in a pristine natural setting just a stone’s throw from Châtel and the Portes du Soleil ski area, La Typique offers a rare and authentic way to experience the mountains. This former 19th-century farmhouse, representative of the traditional architecture of Haute-Savoie, is undergoing a complete renovation designed to combine the charm of the historic building with the comfort of a contemporary home.

Located in a quiet area, the property enjoys a south-facing orientation, an enclosed garden with trees, and sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding peaks. Its location allows for easy access to the center of Châtel and the heart of La Chapelle-d’Abondance in just a few minutes, while still enjoying the tranquility of a residential setting away from the hustle and bustle of tourism.

The farmhouse, with a total floor area of approximately 300 m², is divided into just two independent apartments, preserving an intimate and exclusive atmosphere. The generous spaces, views of the landscape, and use of high-quality materials all contribute to the project’s warm and inviting feel. The interior finishes can be customized to allow each buyer to create a space that fully reflects their lifestyle.

The “Dents du Midi” apartment, already available, features four bedrooms, a mezzanine, and three bathrooms. It also includes a terrace, several balconies, a private garden, a cellar, and parking spaces. Designed to comfortably accommodate a family or groups of friends, it can sleep up to fourteen people depending on the chosen layout. 980,000.00 euros

The “Mont de Grange” apartment, still in the planning stages, has a floor area of approximately 140 m². It also features four bedrooms, a mezzanine, three bathrooms, a terrace, balconies, a private garden, and a cellar. Its layout can accommodate up to twelve people, making it an attractive option both as a family home and for seasonal rentals. Euros

The units are designed to be delivered fully furnished and equipped. In particular, they feature a state-of-the-art heat pump, hydronic floor heating, double-glazed windows, a wood-burning stove, a fully equipped kitchen, and ample storage space. Each apartment also comes with two parking spaces, one of which is covered.

Both a vibrant village and a year-round destination, La Chapelle-d’Abondance offers shops, restaurants, schools, and services throughout the year. In winter, the Portes du Soleil ski area provides access to some 650 kilometers of slopes spanning France and Switzerland. In warmer weather, hiking, mountain biking, outdoor activities, and the proximity to Lake Geneva further enhance the region’s appeal.

La Typique thus represents a unique opportunity: to purchase an apartment with the spacious feel of a chalet, within a completely renovated Savoyard farmhouse, in one of the most authentic and sought-after settings in the French Alps.

Situation

Heading to Haute-Savoie

Pastures, mountains, and valleys create a postcard-perfect landscape. Whether you’re skiing, snowshoeing, dog-sledding, hiking, or biking, you’re sure to have an unforgettable experience! Beyond outdoor activities, Haute-Savoie is also a land of wonder: from traditional festivals to major sporting and cultural events, the region is a source of inspiration! But what truly gives Haute-Savoie its charm is its warm and welcoming atmosphere, typical of mountain regions. Finally, how can we describe Haute-Savoie without mentioning its local terroir, its regional products, and its inspired chefs? Here, we love to sit down to a meal, share, raise a glass, and savor authentic cuisine bursting with flavor.

A peaceful and unspoiled valley

A somewhat hidden gem, the Abondance Valley is brimming with positive energy. In just a few kilometers, it shifts seamlessly between mountains and lakes, between intensity and tranquility. From Lake Geneva to the Portes du Soleil, the Abondance Valley reveals its many facets and never ceases to surprise those who

explore and savor it! Whether you’re surrounded by nature or in the heart of its unspoiled villages like Châtel—perched on mountain peaks or right by the water—it’s impossible to get bored!

Shops/stores

La Chapelle d’Abondance: a charming village resort just a stone’s throw from Châtel. Here, there’s no “seasonal effect”: village life goes on 365 days a year, and most of the many shops remain open year-round. A weekly market, bakery, grocery store, pharmacy, post office, tourist office, schools, and numerous restaurants ensure a vibrant village life all year round. But what also makes La Chapelle d’Abondance so charming is its tranquility: lively yet always peaceful, the village has managed to retain its soul.

A Valley That Steals Your Heart

Just drive along the road leading to the Abondance Valley, and you’ll be captivated. Easily accessible from France or Switzerland, this lush valley looks like something straight out of a postcard. What captivates at first glance is the open space. Here, you can really breathe! And you don’t have to go far to get a deep breath of fresh air. Just step out onto your balcony or take a stroll along the river to feel great.

Mountain Real Estate: A Safe Bet

Investing in the mountains—especially near Switzerland—offers a double advantage. In recent years, we’ve seen a real “four-season” trend: the mountains are no longer seen solely as a winter destination. There’s genuine enthusiasm among young couples and families looking to move to the countryside. Short-term stays (weekends and week-long trips) and the demand for year-round rentals (for which supply falls short of demand) make the Abondance Valley an attractive destination and a safe bet.

Leisure time

650 km of slopes spanning France and Switzerland

8 French ski resorts and 2 Swiss ski resorts: welcome to Les Portes du Soleil! From charming little villages like La Chapelle d’Abondance to large, trendy resorts (think Avoriaz, for example!), each day is different and never the same! Meet new people, explore new

slopes, discover breathtaking new views, and enjoy great dining options for lunch or dinner—from Valais raclette to Abondance cheese... In short, it’s impossible to get bored!

A multifaceted winter

Good news: winter in the mountains is no longer reserved just for downhill skiers. Cross-country skiing, ski touring, dog sledding, snowshoeing, ice skating, paragliding, ice driving, and sledding… all round out the range of activities. But the winter season is also all about discovery—why not visit an alpine pasture or the Abbey of Abondance? Finally, for those who want to take advantage of the mountains to slow down, they’ll be delighted to organize a movie night or treat themselves to a wellness retreat at a spa or one of the hidden hot springs just a stone’s throw from their chalet.

Long considered inaccessible or reserved for a sporting elite, the mountains are becoming more accessible to everyone by capitalizing on their many assets: remarkable heritage, a change of scenery, fresh air, and open spaces... This return to “simple pleasures” is giving new life to resort villages that have managed to preserve their old-world charm without being isolated. As the gateway to the Portes du Soleil, La Chapelle d’Abondance can pride itself on being an authentic village connected to one of the world’s largest ski areas!

This is what gives it its charm and strong potential, regardless of

the season.

Summer: a season for exploring Far from being merely a “post-COVID” phenomenon, visits to mountain resorts continue to grow in the spring, summer, and even fall (as bookings are also on the rise during the All Saints’ Day school break). Beyond the boom in electric mountain biking, hiking, swimming in the great outdoors, and water sports (rafting, kayaking, etc.) are all popular. The prospect of spending time in the mountains year-round is also changing the landscape for city dwellers, who no longer hesitate to invest in a high-altitude vacation home.
