Very little compares with the French village of Megève in the Southern Alps. Nature, architecture and high-end services are all gathered to create the most unforgettable experience. Megève is unique, and the Chalet des Sens is a treasure hidden on the flank of its mountains.

A UNIQUE CHALET ON A UNIQUE DOMAIN

Lauren Berger, with her impeccable instinct for elegance, has selected this residence as one of her most desirable properties. The Chalet des Sens is on par with the highest end resorts. The Chalet des Sens is located on the Mont d’Arbois, one of the four parts of the Mont Blanc Domain. The Domain offers 450 km of slopes: a plurality of choices and many exciting experiences.

IN VOGUE SINCE THE 1920’S

Megève has been trending since the 1920’s as the spot to be seen skiing. Eternally fashionable, it is to France what St. Moritz is to Switzerland. It has always attracted the “crème de la crème” thanks to its elegance and aristocratic flair. The options in Megève are endless: winter sports, bars and restaurants, amazing trails for hiking and observing nature. The purity of the atmosphere rejuvenates the senses and the sublime view feeds the soul.

THE ULTIMATE IN RUSTIC CHIC

The Chalet des Sens is designed to allow for a sensual experience before and after the slopes. The most talented designers of luxury spaces have studied every inch of its interior to create a sumptuous venue. Their work has paid off: the chalet has sophisticated looks and an intimate atmosphere. It represents the ultimate in rustic chic. The beautiful color palette of the living room recalls the glittering palette of the outdoors and the warmth of the architecture‘s wooden structure and fireplace.

A MODERNIST CHALET

The chalet stands out with its extraordinary glass and wood architecture. The façade is divided into three structures: three glass facades crowned with a chalet roof. The chalet offers stunning views, perfect light, temperature control and outdoor spaces for added pleasures. A modernist chalet, the Chalet des Sens exudes luxury. Indoors, there is a balance between private and communal spaces. In such a wonderful environment, you can spend quiet peaceful time in your suite, enjoy the library/office or join in the exuberance of a festive celebration.
