This Alpine chalet is so quintessentially Swiss you’ll half expect a pig-tailed, basket-swinging Heidi to skip out of the front door to greet you. Which is certainly apt, as this home looks like it’s leapt straight from the pages of a storybook. With its Burgundy-coloured shutters, wooden exterior, ornate balcony, and surrounded by towering pine trees – velvety green in summer and dusted with snow in winter – this home is a delight to look at from the outside. And the inside isn’t half bad either – warm wood dominates the decor and creates that cosy, cabin feel. But there are flashes of personality here too, with vintage ski posters, deer-print cushions and glittering chandelier lights in the master bedroom. The real draw is the views – thanks to the home's elevated position you’ll be rewarded with a sensational picture of the Alps from both the sunny balcony and garden. The ski slopes are within easy reach, with the lift and free ski bus both just a kilometre away.
