A ski estate with direct lift access near one of the most expensive ski resorts in the Alps is being put up for auction this week. New owners will own one of the largest Alpine chalets – comprising two separate dwellings and landscaped gardens – near Gstaad.
Gstaad’s strict development controls have preserved scarcity but limited transaction volume, making price discovery events like auctions unusually significant.

The super-prime auction is a real-time test of demand at the very top end of the Alpine market and is expected to attract significant interest from high-net-worth buyers seeking ultra-scaricity, privacy and scale at the very top end of the Alpine market with easy access to Gstaad.
Long-term multigenerational use, with turnkey and ski-in, ski-out amenities make the estate a compelling choice for those permanently relocating to the Gstaad region or seeking an all-season residence with premium trimmings.
Occupying a prime spot in the prestigious Oeschseite district moments from the Rinderberg ski lifts and framed by breathtaking mountain panoramas, the dual-chalet estate defines luxury mountain living.
Built in 2016, the main chalet straddles 650 square meters across multiple levels with seven bedrooms and resort-style wellness facilities including an indoor pool, sauna and gym.
The primary residence also includes an independent apartment for staff or older teenagers, a game room, lounges, a formal dining room, a family room and an open-concept kitchen.
Providing ancillary accommodation for extended family and guests is an additional three-bedroom chalet built in 2021, also with its own spa hot tub, hammam and sauna as well as a wine cellar and bunker.
The estate is going to auction on April 23 but is also on the market for 16 million Swiss francs (US$19.98 million). It is understood that bidding is open until April 30 and is being listed by Concierge Auctions in partnership with listing agent Monica Lospa of FGP Swiss & Alps. Bids are expected to start at 5M–10M CHF ( US $5.5M – $11.5M ).
Oligarchical Gstaad ranked sixth in Knight Frank’s Alpine Property Index for prime property price growth and is the third most expensive ski resort, according to estate agent Savills.
The grande dame of Swiss mountain resorts commands a €32,500 per square metre price tag with pricing driven upward through tightly controlled development to maintain exclusivity, architectural integrity and support pricing.
In a rare development win if approved, a Swiss property tycoon has submitted plans to build the world’s largest ‘mega chalet’ to host the world’s A-listers and mega-rich in the jet-set Swiss in the Alpine hotspot for the super-rich.
The ambitious development named “Chalet Oberbort“, will measure a roomy 7,000 square metres and consist of three interconnected buildings, according to press literature.
Occupying one of the most prestigious plots in the star-studded winter resort, the developer hopes royalty and tech billionaires will be among the ultra-high-net-worth clientele that will rent the luxury lodge seasonally or annually.
