About this property
Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Chamonix Valley, this two-bedroom apartment offers the perfect base for year-round adventures. Whether you are seeking exhilarating days on the slopes in winter or peaceful summer escapes in the mountains, Apartment Grassonet combines rustic charm with modern comfort to create a memorable home away from home.
In winter, the apartment becomes an inviting ski chalet. Just minutes from the world-famous pistes of the Chamonix Valley, it provides easy access to some of Europe’s best skiing and snowboarding. After a day in the snow, retreat to the warm, wood-panelled living space, where exposed beams and tasteful Alpine décor set a cosy tone. The fully equipped kitchen, complete with a fondue caquelon, is perfect for sharing hearty meals with family and friends. Two double bedrooms and a mezzanine with a child’s single bed ensure restful nights for up to five guests.
Summer transforms Apartment Grassonet into a bright, airy mountain hideaway. Step out onto the sun-drenched terrace for breakfast with panoramic views before heading off to explore. Hiking, mountain biking, and paragliding are just a few of the adventures available, with trails and activities starting right on your doorstep. After a day outdoors, the open-plan lounge and dining area provide a relaxed setting to unwind, while the kitchen makes it easy to prepare fresh, local ingredients.
The apartment is ideally located for exploring the region. The vibrant town of Chamonix is only a ten-minute drive away, offering a wealth of restaurants, shops, and après-ski fun in winter or lively summer events. Meanwhile, the charming village of Argentière, easily reached by a nearby bus stop just 400 metres away, invites you to discover traditional French dining and friendly Alpine bars.
Apartment Grassonet is more than a place to stay it is a year-round retreat designed for adventure, relaxation, and unforgettable moments in the French Alps.
A true nature lover’s paradise, Argentière is a traditional Alpine village that serves as a gateway to the renowned Chamonix Valley. Surrounded by dramatic peaks, it offers year-round adventure, from world-class skiing at Les Grands Montets to scenic hiking and biking trails. Golfers can enjoy the stunning Chamonix Golf Club, while thrill-seekers may opt for skydiving over the mountains.
Les Grands Montets is the highlight of the area, offering three distinct ski zones with something for every level. Beginners can start on the gentler lower slopes, while seasoned skiers tackle the challenging off-piste terrain that climbs up to 3,275m, including the awe-inspiring Argentière glacier. The wider Chamonix region adds further variety, with extensive runs for intermediates and dramatic descents for experts. Les Houches, home to the Kandahar World Cup, is especially welcoming for families and beginners, and transforms into a hub for mountain bikers and hikers in summer.
Beyond the slopes, cable car rides open up breathtaking views of peaks such as Les Droites and L’Aiguille Verte. After a day outdoors, the valley brims with après-ski options—from cosy village inns to lively bars in Argentière and Chamonix. For a change of pace, visitors can indulge in spa treatments or wine tastings in town.
In summer, countless trails reveal the valley’s natural splendour. From the glacial Lac Blanc, with its mesmerizing views of Mont Blanc, to the gentle Petit Balcon Sud leading toward Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, the region is rich in routes that reward every effort.
With its blend of adventure, scenery, and charm, the Chamonix Valley is a destination to return to time and again.
