380 m² traditional house in the city center with exceptional potential

Located in the heart of Chamonix’s pedestrian streets, with restaurants right on its doorstep and shops in the immediate vicinity, this characterful townhouse benefits from an exceptional location and offers remarkable potential for conversion into a prestigious private residence.

Built in 1862, it reflects the traditional architecture of 19th-century Chamonix townhouses and represents a rare opportunity to create an exceptional property in one of the valley’s most sought-after areas.

Set on 494 m² of land, the property offers 380.9 m² of habitable space across three levels, together with a basement containing technical rooms, for a total floor area of 432.28 m². Renovated in the 2010s, it is currently arranged as three apartments, including one duplex, intended for rental.

Beyond its current layout, the building stands out above all for its exceptional redevelopment potential. A complete renovation could allow the various spaces to be brought together to create a single, high-end residence spread over four levels. Its volumes offer numerous architectural possibilities, including generous reception areas, a large living and dining room with an open-plan kitchen, several suites with private bathrooms, and a wellness area featuring, in particular, a sauna, hammam or gym.

This transformation could also include architectural enhancement of the façades, notably through the creation of new openings designed to optimise natural light, the volumes and views of the surroundings. Such work would need to respect the building’s original character and architectural identity, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. The property thus offers the prospect of a fully customisable project, combining the charm of an historic residence with the amenities and comfort of a contemporary luxury property.

Outside, the house enjoys a south-west-facing garden with a jacuzzi, providing a pleasant space for relaxation in the very centre of town. The property also has five private parking spaces, accessed via a secure entrance equipped with a barrier and retractable bollard. This system controls vehicle access and prevents the parking spaces from being occupied without authorisation, a particularly valuable advantage in such a central location.

Combining a prime address, generous floor areas and remarkable conversion potential, this townhouse represents a unique opportunity to create an exceptional private residence in the heart of Chamonix. It offers the possibility of creating an exclusive lifestyle setting, combining immediate proximity to all amenities, privacy and high-end features.
