We’ve found the perfect penthouse for your next ski trip

With views of the iconic Mont Blanc this is a penthouse that you’ll be happy to come back to after a long day on the slopes

Located in the heart of the pedestrian district of Chamonix, this top-floor duplex is housed in a 90-year-old building full of character and designed with period art deco features. In fact, the 1920s has heavily influenced the interior design from floor to ceiling, creating a living space that’s both spacious and chic.

Step out onto an unbeatable balcony

While the interior of this apartment is spectacular, the standout feature for us in the wrap-around roof terrace, offering 360 degrees views of the surrounding Alps. Jutting out over the picture-perfect Chamonix, you can dine while gazing up at one of Europe’s highest mountains, Mont Blanc, and the impeccable ski runs down her side.

The terrace is the ideal spot for some good old fashioned après ski. But if it’s too cold to sit outside, you still get all the benefits of the fantastic view thanks to the floor to ceiling windows that surround the upstairs living space.

Explore the rest of the penthouse

The lower level of the penthouse includes four sumptuous bedrooms and five bathrooms with a great reception room to welcome you into the property.

But ascend the staircase and be prepared to have your breath taken away by what greets you on the top step. The living space, which boasts an open fireplace and decadent furniture is our ideal spot to relax with a hot toddy as you warm up after a full day on the slopes.

It's not just for Christmas

This is not just a winter property, however. The town of Chamonix is beautiful in the summer sun, and offers the perfect excuse to stroll around one of the prettiest locations in France. Even better when all of the skiing tourists aren’t there to clog up the best restaurants and bars.
