Description
Nestled in the sunny heights of La Roche at the foot of the Berra, this contemporary chalet, built by the renowned Chalet Schuwey company in 2019, embodies the perfect balance between alpine elegance, modern design and absolute comfort. Bathed in light from morning to night, it is one of the last to catch the sun before it disappears behind the Jura - offering here a sunshine rare in the whole canton of Fribourg. In autumn and winter alike, while the plain remains under a cloud of gloom, the property is often above the clouds, bathed in golden light and serenity.
Designed as a private retreat, the chalet offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Fribourg Pre-Alps and benefits from ideal south-west exposure. Built with noble materials - Burgundy stone, solid wood and Corian finishes - it blends the warmth of traditional craftsmanship with the finesse of contemporary architecture. An architect specializing in lighting imagined a subtle play of lights that changes the mood throughout the day and creates a magical atmosphere in the evening, all controlled by an intelligent home automation system.
With its (196 m²) of living space, the chalet seduces with its fluid distribution and exceptional luminosity. The cathedral living room, centered around a wood-burning fireplace, opens onto a large balcony facing south and west, offering unobstructed views of the mountains. The elegant, fully-equipped open kitchen combines aesthetics and functionality, ideal for entertaining family and friends.
The night space includes four bright bedrooms, including a master suite with bath and walk-in shower. One of the rooms is currently used as a cinema room with sofa bed, offering great flexibility of use. A sauna with walk-in shower, laundry room and utility room complete the lower level.
Externally, a heated swimming pool blends into a landscaped garden bordered by nature. From the property, it's a short walk to the ski slopes, or a few minutes to Lac de la Gruyère, to enjoy an active and inspiring lifestyle all year round.
A veritable haven of light and refinement, this home combines discreet luxury and timeless serenity - a very rare gem in the canton of Fribourg, for those seeking beauty, modernity and Alpine authenticity.
