Exceptional stay
in a luxury chalet
at La Clusaz.

Our cottage “Les Demoiselles Jacquanes” was originally called La Ferme des Riffroids. Built in 1784 (picture 1), it was among the first buildings built in La Clusaz. Illustrated in our logo (picture 2), these two women, owners of the land and the farm, marked the history of the Aravis by their generosity. In fact, they donated their property to the local parish during their lifetime, under the aegis of Curé Prémat. In 1946, this property was classified as a parish heritage.

‍

In 2024, 240 years after its construction, this listed building, witness to a rich past marked by history, is ready to be revived thanks to a renovation project that will scrupulously respect its exterior architecture while reintegrating the interior in contemporary harmony, thus combining heritage and modernity.

‍

Our chalet renovation project “Les Demoiselles Jacquanes” in La Clusaz began with a meticulous dismantling of the old farmhouse classified as a heritage site in order to preserve its authenticity. Each wooden beam has been carefully removed with care by local artisans, in order to be treated and then reassembled in the near future identically to offer high-end accommodation combining traditional charm and modern comfort.

‍

After the dismantling of our farm, currently being treated by our carpenters (picture 1), the earthworks were able to begin (picture 2). The masons then took over to continue the construction. (picture 3). Very quickly, the volumes of our future luxury chalet were revealed, already offering a glimpse of the breathtaking view from the future swimming pool over the village of La Clusaz and the majestic Aravis mountain range. (photos 4 and 5).

The masonry of our future cottage “Les Demoiselles Jacquanes” is now over. Backfilling can begin. The carpenters, for their part, have begun to install the breakdowns that will support the future roof. (picture 1)). Meanwhile, the wood of the old farmhouse continues to be carefully restored. (picture 2). Time is running out now, as winter and snow are approaching. Craftsmen are redoubling their efforts to make the construction site out of water, out of air (photos 3, 4 and 5) before the significant snowfall expected in mid-December on the Aravis mountain resort.

Winter has now settled on our chalet and beautiful town of La Clusaz. We are happy to report that the goal of making the cottage out of water, out of air before the cold season has been brilliantly achieved! A great opportunity to capture some memories of the first fallen snowflakes, and to discover the view from the living room of our future exceptional chalet. (photos 1 to 4)

It is also the ideal time to reveal the front facade of our project. (picture 5). On the ground floor, you will discover an area dedicated to well-being with an indoor heated pool, a spa, a steam room, a relaxation area and a gym. On the upper floor, the living rooms will offer you a warm setting with a living room around a fireplace, a dining room, an open kitchen, a games room for the youngest, a bar and a cinema room.

During a winter full of snow, “Les Demoiselles Jacquanes” has seen its interior work progress rapidly: plastering, insulation, electricity... The building is beginning to reveal its volumes, and future living spaces are finally taking shape in real size (picture 1). On the wellness area side, the first stones of the pool have been laid (picture 2), announcing an exclusive place to relax, both elegant and soothing.

With the arrival of sunny days and spring, outdoor work is resumed. The original wood of the old farm, now treated, is put back in place on the facades, restoring all the authenticity of the building. In the same spirit, the installation of the Tavaillon roof began. This traditional Alpine technique, composed of wooden tiles laid by hand, testifies to the ancestral know-how of the region. A noble and timeless finish, just like the chalet and true to the spirit we want to instill in at “Les Demoiselles Jacquanes” (photos 3, 4 and 5).
