Megève, elegance and tradition
Megève is a village and a mythical ski resort in the Alps, in the heart of the Mont Blanc massif. Once a holiday resort for the crowned heads, it is above all an authentic village, a symbol of the French art of living. Made up of narrow cobbled streets with medieval architecture, it is possible to get around on foot or in a horse-drawn carriage to contribute to the town's charm. The resort is situated at an altitude of around 1,100 metres, offering sumptuous views and access to 107 lifts, 219 runs and 647 snow guns. But it's a destination that comes alive in every season! In summer, the variety of activities on offer is not to be outdone.
Buying a second home in
Megeve
Buying a property in Megève is a winning operation: both to benefit from a pied à terre for family stays and to make a profitable real estate operation by turning to rental property. The property market is both dynamic and very tight. This applies to both the transaction and rental markets. Buyers are all looking for comfort and easy access to amenities. The prices of properties for sale therefore depend on the location in the village and the proximity to the slopes. Prestige properties are also doing well. In the most sought-after areas, you can expect to pay between €12,000 and €22,000 per square metre for an individual chalet.

The different districts of Megève
- The center of Megeve The medieval town offers many atypical streets and squares. Nothing is better than a little stroll in its streets to discover its shops and its numerous restaurants. The center of Megève is only a few minutes away from the Rochebrune and Mont d'Arbois slopes. This area offers some opportunities to buy apartments close to all amenities.
- Rochebrune Located on the south side of Megeve, this shaded area offers proximity to the shops and the ski slopes. Indeed, the Rochebrune cable cars, the Grands Champs chairlifts and the Caboche gondolas allow easy access to the slopes. Rochebrune is therefore a good compromise when you want to invest in Megève.
- The Mont d'Arbois Located to the east, this area, which contains exceptional traditional chalets and allows easy access to the ski slopes, is one of the most popular in Megeve. Close to the golf course open from May to October and the heliport, the Mont d'Arbois offers a privileged geographical location and the promise of an incomparable lifestyle. It is not by chance that the de Rothschild family chose this area.
- Le Jaillet Located to the north, Le Jaillet is a residential area that is becoming increasingly popular due to its breathtaking view of Mont Blanc and its sunny location. This peaceful and incredible area is very popular with families and is therefore full of beautiful chalets with light wood. Served by the Jaillet gondola and the Prellet chairlift, mountain activities, both summer and winter, are in abundance!
