Description of the chalet In the midst of the largely untouched and sun-kissed natural landscape of the picturesque Binntal valley, this lovingly converted barn rises. With great sensitivity, the building substance was renovated from the ground up and shaped into a first-class living dream. The exterior proudly preserves the authentic character of the traditional wooden block construction, while inside, a harmony of alpine charm, noble natural materials, and modern living technology awaits. A property of this quality and uniqueness is not currently available for sale in the entire region. The impressive wall wood made of dark, decades-old alpine sun and weathered old wood was professionally preserved. As a appealing eye-catcher, new, custom-fit window frames made of fresh, light larch wood set architecturally elegant contrasts. The object is crowned by a durable, weather-resistant Prefa roof, which also provides maximum safety and timeless elegance in extreme snow loads and weather conditions in the Binntal. Upper floor – living, cooking, and enjoying The upper floor forms the impressive heart of the house. Under the imposing roof slope, a bright and cozy living and dining area welcomes you. Materialization and ambiance: A continuous, massive larch plank floor of highest haptic quality characterizes the room feeling, paired with warming wall cladding made of noble larch old wood. Culinary delights and design: The open-design kitchen convinces as a visual centerpiece. It features a freestanding kitchen island with a noble granite worktop, a BORA induction glass ceramic cooktop including an integrated cooktop extractor, and high-class Siemens built-in appliances (oven and dishwasher). Lighting: A well-thought-out, dimmable lighting concept with indirect LED light strips in the ridge sets the visible wood structure of the interior of the roof in a atmospheric scene. Smart warmth: For a cozy atmosphere on cold winter days, an efficient RIKA wood stove provides warmth. The special highlight: it can be ignited and controlled remotely – so you can expect a wonderfully preheated home already when you arrive on the weekend. Additionally, provision has been made for wood storage on the north-facing exterior wall of the house. Ground floor – sleeping and sanitary area The lower floor serves for quiet and restful nights as well as for practical everyday needs.

Known as a mineral and hiking paradise, this valley has been under nature protection since 1964 and delights visitors with a unique mix of alpine nature, cultural heritage, and warm Valais hospitality. Binn is known far beyond the national borders for its rich mineral deposits. Collectors, geologists, and nature lovers alike get their money's worth here. In the village, there are two mineral shops and a traditional cutting shop that keeps the ancient craft of stone processing alive. Next to it, a woodcarving shop, a carpentry shop, and a food store invite you to discover regional products and handicrafts. Agriculture also plays an important role in Binn to this day: four full-time farmers operate dairy farming, and in the summer, the surrounding alps are grazed by cows and sheep – a picture that perfectly reflects the rural charm of the Binntal.
