Completely rebuilt in 2020, Ferme des Sommets is a five-bedroom farmhouse perched on the Les Houches hillside that preserves the historic charm of the original 1700s property while providing a modern, high-quality finish.

The ground floor features a large open kitchen with breakfast bar and dining area, a double-height lounge with a double-sided wood-burning stove and a stone terrace with west-facing views of the Fiz mountain range. This level also includes two ensuite bedrooms, an office, a laundry room and a utility room.

The first floor comprises a large, double-height lounge with a fireplace and three ensuite bedrooms, including the master suite with a walk-in dressing room. The lower ground floor has a gym and two further rooms that could be converted into a large cinema/games room and a sauna/massage room.

Set in a private location with no immediate neighbours, the property has a huge wraparound, flagstone terrace with fantastic views of the Fiz and the Chamonix Valley, with late summer sun.

Ferme des Sommets is situated on the hills above Les Houches in a commanding position looking down to the Chamonix Valley floor. It is just over 1km from the Les Houches town square where you can find shops, restaurants, the Carrefour supermarket as well as the start line of the renowned Tour du Mont-Blanc. The Bellevue cable car is just over 2km and the Prarion gondola is just under 3km from the property.
