Chalet Sylvie is an idyllic mountain retreat which has been expertly designed by a local architect, to ensure the chalet and style is fitting to the beautiful mountain surroundings. Situated on the edge of a forest and sitting above the River Dranse, the design compliments the scenery, creating an Alpine feel that is both luxurious and relaxing. Chalet Sylvie is a 5 bedroom chalet for up to 10 guests.
Upon entry to Chalet Sylvie, the eyes can’t help but be drawn by the huge glass atrium that runs through the chalet’s centre. Expansive windows fill the chalet with natural light across multiple levels. This incredible feature creates a balanced, serene feel where the beauty surrounding you and the incredible views of the Pointe de Nyon are drawn into the chalet.
Heading through from the atrium, you get a sense of the enormity of the living and dining areas of the chalet, situated across the upper and lower levels of the ground floor. The stylish open plan lounge is filled with comfortable seating with a stunning central feature fireplace as its focal point. Heading down onto the lower level of this floor you brings you into the dining and kitchen space. The sleek modern kitchen and large oak dining table blend seamlessly with the cathedral-like ceilings where exposed beams and wooden decor help to create a traditional mountain feel within this contemporary chic chalet. The dining table looks out over Chalet Sylvie’s expansive terrace, with scenic views over the forest and mountains.
For a relaxing spa session on return from the slopes, Chalet Sylvie has you covered. There is an outdoor sauna, found in the converted mazot that originally stood on this land. There is also an outdoor hot tub next to the river, so you can make the most of this tranquil location. Complete with Bluetooth speakers, soak in the soothing bubbles as you listen to your favourite playlist or simply just enjoy the sounds of nature as you relax in contentment.
You can find a well-stocked bar adjacent to the pool table on the top floor of the chalet. This opens out onto a glass mezzanine with glass ceiling that makes this an especial space for socialising. A TV snug is located just off the back of this space that provides a cosy place to curl up in front of your favourite film.
Chalet Sylvie’s bedrooms are spacious and stylish. The master bedroom on the top floor is the paramount of these suites. Benefitting from its own private lounge; two separate private balconies overlooking the forest and river; and an en-suite bathroom with freestanding bathtub and rainforest shower; this deluxe suite epitomises luxury living. Four generous bedrooms on the ground floor each have an en-suites with a bath or rainforest shower and all have access to the chalet’s private garden terrace. There is room for up to 10 guests, with every bedroom being able to be taken as a double or twin room, although an additional 2 children can be accommodated on request.
For storage use of all your ski equipment, situated on the entrance level of Chalet Sylvie is a large and comfortable ski room with boot and glove warmers. There is plenty of private parking available around the chalet also.
What is there more kindly than the feeling between host and guest?
