The mental image of a Swiss alpine home is often one following a traditional design—gabled roofs, protective eaves and interiors consisting entirely of wood. But a quick look at the current market of towns and villages along the Alps and one will discover a range of ultra-modern properties.
Combining the sophistication of a contemporary design with the serenity of a mountain setting, these modern residences offer access to supreme natural scenery without sacrificing elegance. One such property, a contemporary villa in Crans-Montana, exemplifies this balance of the refined and the natural.
Designed with its exceptional surroundings top of mind, the five-bedroom villa features a southern-facing orientation and walls of glass for a 180-degree of the Alps. The sleek architecture and clean use of natural materials make for a structure that stands apart from its mountain setting while feeling completely integrated.
Rising four stories with service from an elevator, the well-appointed property includes an array of amenity spaces, including a cinema room, fitness room and wellness area with an indoor jacuzzi. Other notable amenities include a surveillance system, a 12-car garage and a remote-controlled fireplace.
The interior flows freely into the villa’s balconies and terraces thanks to massive sliding glass doors, allowing for upscale living amidst one of the world’s most dramatic settings.
