About the Location

Nestled at an altitude of 2100m, Le Lavachet is one of the original Tignes neighbourhoods. Its location, in the heart of one of the most beautiful ski areas in the world, makes it a prime location for mountain enthusiasts. A unique ski area, living off its dynamism, guaranteed snowfall, and exceptional environment, Tignes has always embodied the ultimate in sporting values. The Papillon apartment is located on the roof of the Lavachet shopping centre, offering breathtaking views of this magnificent panorama. In this quiet neighbourhood, the apartment is situated within close proximity to the ski area, just a few steps away from all amenities, restaurants, and shops with easy public transport links to the rest of the resort.

About the Property

Completely renovated in 2023, this apartment is the ideal blend of comfort, aesthetics, and practicality. Its layout has been designed to make the most of the 200m2 living space, creating perspective through its large volumes, and playing with lights and shapes to showcase the unique architecture. The interior of the apartment has been carefully designed for open-plan living, with space to welcome between 12-14 guests in absolute comfort.

As you climb the steps of the independent entrance, you will be surprised by the apartment's unique layout. This apartment offers a large separate entrance hall, 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a laundry room, and a magnificent living area of over 70m2, including a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area, and a living room. Each room is unique, including a TV dormitory and a beautiful master suite.

The atypical architecture of the building has been highlighted during the renovation and provides exceptional ceiling height, with the sense of a traditional chalet. Curves have been incorporated into the furniture design to counterbalance the prevailing orthogonal structure, adding a softer aesthetic, while the interior design has been carefully crafted with an emphasis on natural light. Large openings have been implemented to make the most of the extraordinary panorama: the Aiguille Percée, Grande Motte, Grande Sassière, and the Pointe de Picheru are all within sight.

Investment Potential

Fully renovated last year, this apartment has been completely rebuilt to offer the 5-star quality that can be found in a new-build. Designed to offer excellent and sustainable comfort the apartment comes with full insulation, soundproofing, plumbing, electrical systems and home automated lighting. The Papillon apartment is also delivered fully furnished and is ready to move into today.

This property represents an exciting investment opportunity in one of the most renowned ski domains in the world. High rental returns can be expected in both winter and summer and long-term capital appreciation is guaranteed in a resort of that altitude.
