Alpine Real Estate - Your Trusted Partner at The Alpine Buyers Agent

Widely celebrated as the pinnacle of Alpine luxury, Val d'Isère recently secured the title of 'best ski resort' in the Condé Nast Traveller 2025 Readers' Choice Awards, achieving a near-perfect score of 99.17%. This prestigious accolade highlights its unique blend of world-class high-altitude skiing—reaching up to 3,456m—and its authentic, stone-clad village charm. The allure of Val d'Isère property is evident in its real estate market, which reflects this elite status, consistently ranking as one of the most expensive and resilient in the French Alps. Demand is fueled by 'stealth wealth' investors and a strictly limited supply of new developments, similar to trends seen in Bourg Saint Maurice housing, La Rosière properties, Sainte Foy Tarentaise real estate, and Tignes real estate.

Tignes is, of course, directly linked to Val d'Isère via the shared ski domain. Unlike Val d'Isère property, Tignes has not experienced the same rapid price increases, suggesting that there may be more growth potential here. Many of the older buildings in Tignes are undergoing significant transformations to create prime and ultra prime dwellings. Personally, we love the openness of Tignes and ran our business here for many years, with Ellie also having lived here. Additionally, for those exploring Bourg Saint Maurice housing, La Rosière properties, or Sainte Foy Tarentaise real estate, Tignes real estate offers a unique and appealing alternative.

This is another firm favourite going through a boom at the moment. Many of our clients begin their search in Val d'Isère and Tignes, but after a visit to Sainte Foy, we often convert even the most die-hard Tignes and Val d'Isère fans. With north-facing skiing over 2000m, family-friendly options - check, and some of the best untracked off-piste in the area - a closely guarded secret, this pretty resort boasts alpine charm and stunning views. It's about 20 to 30 minutes to reach la Rosière, Villaroger, les Arcs, Tignes, and Val d'Isère. And did we mention that the average property price for a chalet in the area is currently €10-14K per m2? If you're interested in Bourg Saint Maurice housing or Sainte Foy Tarentaise real estate, this region is worth considering.

This family-friendly resort and the surrounding hamlets benefit from all-day sunshine and stunning views. Linked to Italy via La Thuile, you can often ski two totally different climates in the same day. Italy and La Rosière properties often enjoy the 'retour d'est,' resulting in more snow than Tignes real estate and Val d'Isère property, similar to the back of Sainte Foy, which is also known for its favorable conditions. The villages are primarily connected by ski bus. La Rosière prices are slightly cheaper than Val d'Isère and Tignes, while still being a bit more expensive than Sainte Foy Tarentaise real estate, depending on the specific location.

The demand for Bourg Saint Maurice housing and La Rosière properties is huge at the moment, especially for those seeking to spend larger chunks of time in the mountains. Bourg Saint Maurice has direct train links to Paris and London. The funiculaire is accessed and served by a free navette that runs around Bourg Saint Maurice, taking skiers, bikers, and walkers straight into Arc 1600. Bourg is thriving all year round, serving as a hub of activity for sports and nature lovers. Just 5 minutes away, Séez is connected by a free navette and is often regarded as Bourg's sunnier sister, feeling a bit more like a village while still being close to all the services and activities in Bourg. Additionally, those interested in Sainte Foy Tarentaise real estate, Tignes real estate, or Val d'Isère property will find these areas to be equally appealing for their mountain lifestyle.

We really specialize in ski resorts, including Bourg Saint Maurice housing and La Rosière properties. However, we are always happy to work on a case-by-case basis if you are looking for something a little bit more bespoke, whether it's Sainte Foy Tarentaise real estate, Tignes real estate, or Val d'Isère property.
