In a particularly quiet residential area in the hamlet of Kalpetran, the 1950-built multi-family house "Alpenrose" stands, where the enchanting duplex apartment is located on the 2nd upper and attic floors. Access to the apartment is via a modern exterior staircase; there is no elevator.

Thanks to its central location in the valley, Kalpetran is easily accessible all year round - both by the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn (MGB) and via the well-developed cantonal road that leads from Visp to Zermatt. This makes the village an ideal starting point for hikes, excursions, and experiences in the entire Matter Valley.

Whether for a stopover on the way to the high mountains or as a starting point for alpine adventures - Kalpetran combines peace and accessibility in a harmonious way and convinces with its location, its openness, and its excellent accessibility.

This exceptional and cozy apartment on two levels combines rustic alpine charm and modern living comfort. On approximately 137 m² of living space, a home opens up that not only offers space but also genuine quality of life with numerous loving details.

Already when entering the apartment, you are greeted by a spacious entrance area with practical built-in closets. A special highlight is the hand-painted artwork by the Zermatt artist René Fux, which underlines the stylish character of the apartment.

On this level, there is a cozy children's room, a spacious room that is ideal as a bedroom or home office, and the high-quality renovated bathroom from 2018 with shower, bathtub, toilet, and sink.

The kitchen, completely renovated in 2020, will delight every hobby cook's heart. It opens up to the living and dining area with an open ceiling construction. The absolute centerpiece of this level is the historic Giltsteinofen from 1747, which is fired from the corridor and provides unparalleled cozy warmth on cold days.

From the living and dining area, as well as from the kitchen, you can directly access the balcony, from which you can enjoy a magnificent view of the impressive Brunegghorn.

The attic floor impresses with another cozy living area, two additional bedrooms, and a second bathroom with shower, toilet, sink, and washing machine connection, which also serves as a practical laundry room. A Reduit provides additional storage space. All interior doors, as well as many built-in closets, are adorned with artistically hand-carved intarsia. Another exceptional detail is the massive historic cash safe, which is part of the apartment.

The living and sleeping areas - with the exception of one room and the modernized bathroom - are equipped with high-quality solid wood parquet. In the kitchen, the bathroom on the attic floor, and the corridors, low-maintenance laminate was installed. The apartment is mainly heated by the Giltsteinofen, supplemented by electric heating.

The house is covered with durable Kalpetran quartzite natural stone plates and is already connected to the fiber optic network.

This attractive offer is rounded off by a natural cellar, a hobby room with sink, a remise, a share of the garden equipment room or laundry room, a private garage, and space for up to three vehicles on the meadow area next to the house.

The garage is located about 75 meters from the residential building on parcel number 1957.

Kalpetran – where the Valais mountains tell stories and nature is within reach

Kalpetran, part of the idyllic municipality of Embd in the Matter Valley, looks back on a turbulent past closely linked to the quartzite mining of the region. The small, charming village was an important transshipment point for one of the most famous natural products of Valais - high-quality Embd quartzite - for decades.
