Sotheby's: High Life in a Chalet!

Do you find that even the best five star hotels often feel disappointingly impersonal? Sotheby's International Realty can probably make you much happier... by opening the door to its prestige residences at Megève and Courchevel that are gilded with a coterie of personal services. It's the height of luxury.

 


Sotheby's: A business untouched by the crisis


With its double-digit growth even in the doldrums of 2008, clearly, the oldest auction house, which has also become a world leader in luxury residential real estate sales, is a long way from succumbing to the risks of a rackety economic climate. On the contrary, property agents are flourishing, testimony that luxury still has a future to enjoy... Powder hounds will find that its subsidiary, Sotheby's Megève and Courchevel has a vast choice of chalets and incredible homes to rent with amazing views and generous volumes.


 


Between jet set and cocoon…


Courchevel, and to a lesser extent Megève, offer particular settings for homes that are both spectacular and intimate. From the outside, the picture postcard chalet, warm and inviting. Inside: large but cozy bedrooms, a huge living room, fully equipped kitchen, jacuzzi, spacious and airy rooms... Housekeeping and pool maintenance extra. As nothing is too elegant for this pampered clientele, the arrival of a chef or butler on demand is another key service, while gracious concierge staffers handle last-minute baby-sitting or helicopter rental requests... unparalleled luxury that will seduce even the most demanding guests.
