Description
Some places are much more than a house. They are a feeling. An arrival. A sense of relief. In the small, sunny hamlet of Hublen above St. Niklaus, a chalet with genuine charm awaits you. Nestled in an authentic alpine setting, surrounded by larch trees, meadows and an impressive mountain landscape, you will live here in peace and sunshine, with an unobstructed view over the Matter Valley.
The house was built in 1985 and carefully modernized throughout in 2016. Great importance was attached to quality, style and the durability of the materials. Today the property is in very good condition and combines alpine charm with contemporary living comfort. Whether as a primary or secondary residence, it convinces with its versatility and atmosphere.
The absolute highlight is the living area on the upper floor. The exposed roof structure gives the room great brightness, height and a special architectural appeal. Warm wood, plenty of natural light and the open layout create a unique living experience – exactly the alpine ambience you want in a chalet. An elegant soapstone stove provides pleasant, natural warmth and makes this room the heart of the house.
The kitchen is modern and of high quality, and blends elegantly into the overall concept. It offers not only functionality but genuine comfort. Quality appliances, clean lines and a well-thought-out design make the kitchen a pleasure to use and underline the high standards of the modernization.
The ground floor houses further rooms with direct access to the garden. Here too, an additional soapstone stove in one of the rooms creates a particularly welcoming atmosphere and is a charming complement to the existing electric storage heating. The plot covers 381 m² and offers plenty of space to relax, play or simply enjoy quiet moments in nature. The sunny hillside position guarantees light from morning to evening as well as a high degree of privacy. The balcony on the upper floor offers an impressive view over the valley and the surrounding mountains.
An outdoor parking space and a garage space can be rented in the immediate vicinity. On request, the furniture can also be taken over, allowing a hassle-free move.
The location is ideal for nature lovers and active people. Hiking trails and alpine roads start right on the doorstep. The proximity of Grächen gives access to a wide range of leisure activities, including a ski area, trails along the historic irrigation channels (Suonen) and tourist infrastructure. At the same time, St. Niklaus, Visp and Zermatt are easily accessible.
This chalet is not just a holiday property but a genuine, authentic alpine retreat with character and quality – a place for those who seek tranquility, appreciate nature and value a true mountain feeling.
