The new Residence Roots is being developed on Oberdorfstrasse in Zermatt. Both the village centre and the Zermatt-Furri lift are around a five-minute walk away. The location therefore combines the convenience of everyday village life with immediate access to the mountains. For a primary residence, this matters: shopping, restaurants, school, kindergarten, public transport and leisure facilities are all close by. Roots is designed for people who do not simply visit Zermatt, but want to make it home.

The Premium Primary Residence within Roots

The Roots Matterhorn Duplex occupies the upper levels of the building and offers approximately 119.4 m² of net living space. It holds a distinctive position within the development: the project documentation specifically identifies Matterhorn views from this residence or its terrace. It therefore combines the qualities of a high-end primary home with a panorama that remains exceptional every day.

Sleep Below, Live Above

The layout deliberately reverses the conventional arrangement. Three bedrooms of approximately 12.6 to 14.8 m² occupy the lower level, while the shared living floor sits above. This not only creates privacy, but places the kitchen, dining and living area at the highest possible point of the residence, where light and views can be enjoyed to their fullest.

More Than 52 m² of Living Beneath the Roof

The upper floor opens into approximately 52.1 m² of living, dining and kitchen space. Exposed roof construction gives the room a distinctly alpine identity, while the open layout remains contemporary and calm. From the living space, the balcony opens directly towards Zermatt's mountain landscape.

Premium Here Means a Place to Live, Not a Holiday Apartment

Because the apartment is designated exclusively as a primary residence, it speaks to a specific buyer: someone professionally and personally rooted in Zermatt who does not want to compromise on architecture, views or location in their everyday home. It offers an alternative to a traditional chalet, with modern technology, lower maintenance and a more central daily lifestyle.

A Home That Can Still Carry Your Signature

Architecturally, Roots combines alpine materials with contemporary residential comfort. The construction combines solid building elements with modern timber and system construction, while the floor build-up is designed with acoustic comfort in mind. An air-to-water heat pump, individually controlled underfloor heating, summer free-cooling, triple-glazed timber-aluminium windows and motorised external blinds are part of the planned specification. Within the defined construction framework, buyers can also personalise various finishes, including the kitchen, sanitary fittings, flooring, wall finishes and electrical details.
