Historically valuable Valais house on the Simplon

Are you looking for the perfect retreat, easily accessible in the beautiful Simplon area? The historic house from Stockalper's times, located in the Waldmatten area in a prime south-facing location near the Simplon Pass, was built in 1616 by Johann Perren, the then-castellan of the Simplon and captain of the valley. Probably, the old pack trail led over the Simplon Pass here. Lovingly renovated and maintained, it is still a gem today! The old stone walls, the massive wooden construction, and the Giltstein oven are combined with tasteful old furniture and offer modern comfort. Particularly noteworthy are the impressive inscriptions on the old wooden beams and the beautiful roof terrace on the east side of the house. Worth mentioning: In the summer of 2024, the drinking water pipes were connected to the public network. On the ground floor, there are a cellar and a technical room, and the cozy upper floor features an open kitchen, a cozy living room with sleeping area, a separate bedroom, and a practical retreat, as well as a large bathroom; additional bedrooms are located on the top floor. The beautiful surroundings with the unique flora and fauna of the Simplon area invite you to enjoy and linger. The property is ideal for your summer vacation, far from any hustle and bustle, with a great view. The furniture and inventory are included in the price. Parking spaces are located right in front of the house on plots No. 641 and 642. These are included in the offer, as is the co-ownership share of the access road.Simplon is a political municipality in the Brig district.
