Description
Formerly a small family-run hotel and station buffet, this splendid building dating back to 1810 is ideally perched on a promontory, offering breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Geneva and the Alps. Located in Chamby, it enjoys a truly exceptional setting between city and mountains, striking a rare balance between peace and convenience thanks to excellent rail connections. Carefully renovated, the property has retained all the charm of its historic character while adapting to modern standards, with generous volumes and approximately 262 sqm of living space spread across three levels, plus a basement.
Thoughtfully designed to accommodate a variety of lifestyles or projects, the house offers a flexible layout that can serve as a spacious family residence or be adapted for a guesthouse or hospitality venture, thanks to several independent entrances that allow for the creation of separate living areas.

Each bedroom features its own en-suite bathroom, ensuring privacy and comfort for both residents and guests.
The basement includes ample storage space, a technical room, and additional sanitary facilities, rounding out the practical aspects of the property. Outside, the 1,254 sqm plot extends to a large terrace with a covered area perfect for outdoor dining or relaxing moments—as well as a jacuzzi from which to take in the sweeping, uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape.
Several outdoor parking spaces are also available.
This property is ideal for a large family, a second home, or a hospitality project such as a bed and breakfast or holiday rental.
