Sotheby's: High Life in a Chalet!
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.
