Description
A purpose-built luxury accessible holiday home for all to enjoy
Sleeping up to 8 people in 4 ensuite bedrooms, this accessible chalet offers guests a bespoke experience ideal for families, friends and groups.
Constructed from sustainably sourced timber and erected using local tradespeople, the building complements its setting within the Alpine Pearl Village of Mallnitz. The full-height atrium window of the open plan living area immerses you in the mountains and valleys of the Hohe Tauern National Park, affording you the Alpine experience without leaving the door. Just to the side of the window is a log burning stove to cosy up alongside and watch the clear skies on those cold winter nights. The fully fitted kitchen gives views up towards the Ankogel mountain range ski arena and Taurantal valley.
All the bedrooms have the versatility to be set up as double or twin rooms. Two bedrooms are located downstairs and have been specifically designed to enable access for anyone. The larger of these two rooms has its own door opening up onto the front patio. With level entry throughout the ground floor, wide doors and modern ensuite wetrooms, the ground floor offers ease of access for wheelchair users.
Upstairs sees a further two ensuite bedrooms situated either side of a large mezzanine lounge. This versatile space offers further seating as well as a collection of books and games. Tucked away at either end of the mezzanine level is a secluded snug area and workspace. If you need to check in with the real world whilst you’re away, you can do so in relative peace.
Outside the chalet is a spacious two-car covered car port with easy access to the front and rear of the building. Further uncovered parking is available to the rear of the chalet. The front patio extends onto a private enclosed garden with large grassed lawn and barbecue area.
