2 bedrooms chalet, 154 m²

Doues, Aoste (province)

Just a few minutes' drive from the main amenities of the village of Doues — and only 25 km from the motorway toll booth — stands this high-altitude mountain chalet, a former Valdostan mayen suspended between forest and sky, completely isolated, silent, surrounded by flowering alpine meadows, conifer woods, and a panoramic view of snow-capped peaks that embraces the horizon in every direction.

Free-standing on all four sides, with approximately 2,500 sqm of land all around — meadow, woodland, and the sound of a stream running along the property boundary — it has no neighbours, no noise, no compromises.

Built in load-bearing masonry with exposed stonework, a lose stone roof, and the quiet solidity of something made to last, the chalet was renovated in the 1980s and is reached via a short stretch of farm track.

It is arranged over two levels with two independent entrances — one from below, one from above — leaving open the possibility of creating two separate units, ideal for extended families or for those who wish to share a space without sacrificing their own independence.

On the ground floor, life gathers around the stone fireplace, the heart of a living area where kitchen and sitting room share the space naturally. A bathroom and an under-stair storage room complete the floor. An internal staircase leads to the upper level, where a hallway — giving access to a covered terrace overlooking the alpine landscape — leads to the double bedroom, the twin bedroom, the second bathroom, a storage room, and a recently renovated second kitchen.

For heating, the ground floor features a wood-burning fireplace and a wood-burning stove; the upper floor has a pellet stove alongside several electric radiators. Hot water is supplied by an electric boiler. The property is connected to the mains water and electricity networks.

A rare opportunity on the Valdostan property market: an authentic property in a unique and unrepeatable position, with every potential to become a valuable long-term investment.
