About this property
The '1904' - An exceptional chalet in Savoie, directly on the ski slopes
Perched at 1,740 meters above sea level in the preserved hamlet of Désert d’en Haut, this rare gem combines the authenticity of an alpine chalet with the charm of high-end contemporary decor. Here, absolute tranquility reigns, and the breathtaking views accompany you at every moment.
In winter, the chalet is ideally located just 15 meters from the slopes of the vast 160 km ski area, with direct access up to 2,750 meters in altitude. Only 400 meters from Valmeinier 1800 resort, you can reach the chalet on skis or on foot via a snowy trail, ensuring total immersion in the preserved natural surroundings. While vehicle access is not possible in winter, this constraint becomes an asset: isolation and serenity are guaranteed.
In summer, the chalet becomes the perfect starting point for hikes to Mont Thabor, and vehicle access to the hamlet makes exploration even easier.
Inside, the space is generous and designed to comfortably accommodate up to 10 people. The 10 real beds, spacious living area centered around a cast-iron stove, fully equipped kitchen, convivial bar, two bathrooms, two toilets, and even a workspace make it a place where you instantly feel at home. Rated 4 stars, the “1904” elegantly blends warm wood, stone, raw concrete, and modern amenities for a stay that combines authenticity and luxury.
Whether you come to ski down the slopes, hike in the mountains, or simply recharge, this chalet is an invitation to experience unforgettable moments of conviviality and escape.
