I originally took this project on with the idea to create a lovely home to live in. Due to a career change and having spent several very happy years here I have now made the property available for holiday rental.
Downstairs: open plan kitchen / dining room with stone surround wood burning fire the kitchen is very well equipped with high quality oven, steamer, microwave, gas hob, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, kettle & coffee machine. Wi Fi is available throughout the house. Twin bedroom, bathroom, small utility room with washing / drying machine & ski cupboard.
Upstairs: Loft style living room with very comfortable English furniture (2 person sofa, 2 single armchairs & a footstool). French windows onto the south facing balcony both offering superb Matterhorn views. A large top of the range LCD tv with Swisscom cable box offering channels in English, German, French & Spanish. A good quality music system & cd / dvd player.
Sonos wireless throughout the house (download the Sonos app to play your music from your phone or ipad then choose which rooms to listen.) Double en suit bedroom (wetroom with shower), separate access door & outside stairs. Both bedrooms have curtains & blinds.
Best use has been made of the available space despite strict building regulations on this beautiful listed property, so the bathrooms are functional but small with showers in both. The internal staircase is very steep so great care is needed if you have young children. There is however another outside staircase that runs up the side of the building.
The House is toward the top of this lovely old street the hinterdorfstrasse.
Nestled between the two five star hotels in Zermatt’s centre the Hinterdorfstrasse is a charming quiet cobbled street & the oldest part of the village. Many of the buildings date back to the 1700’s. Hinterdorf is now a listed & protected area. 2 mins walk to the river at the junction with Le Mazot, Buses run in both directions every 10 mins during peak times. 5 mins on the bus to the furthest lift from Zermatt - Klein Matterhorn.
SKI LIFTS Gornergrat: A 4 minute walk down the Bahnhofstrasse.
Klein Matterhorn: Best to take the bus (see above) or a 15 min walk.
Sunnegga: A 5 minute walk down past the bus stop & along the river.
Town Centre; The Bahnhofstrasse (High St.) with restaurants, bars & shops just a one minute walk.
Train Station: A 4 minute walk or take an Electro Taxi for CHF20 with luggage.
The House is located toward the top this street on the left where red dot is shown.
