On the ground

The chalet market in Les Houches, in figures

Buying a chalet in Les Houches is read against the house median of the DVF survey, around €8,800/m²: a yardstick for the whole commune, not the price of an address. For apartments, the median, €7,600/m², stays below that of Chamonix, €10,000/m², and above that of Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, €5,300/m²: the commune sits between the two. For a chalet, value plays out elsewhere: the view of the massif, the exposure, winter access.

The heights, at Les Chavants and Le Coupeau, hold the chalets on a balcony over the valley; the village, the chalets near the schools and shops; Taconnaz, to the east, the chalets at the gates of Chamonix, beneath an avalanche path fitted with protective works. Off-market counts: Home Select receives off-market properties through its network of partners, which the portals do not show. Home Select runs the search remotely, on documents and on video, before a single trip.

Frequently asked questions

Buying a chalet in Les Houches: your questions

Chalet up high or village apartment in Les Houches?

Two products. The chalet up high, at Les Chavants or Le Coupeau, sells calm and views, around €8,800/m² for the survey’s houses; it needs a car and a cleared access. The apartment for sale in Les Houches, in the village, around €7,600/m², sells life on foot: schools, shops, the Prarion gondola. One is chosen for space, the other for ease; Home Select documents both before any decision.

What should you check before buying a chalet in Taconnaz?

First the zoning: Taconnaz lies beneath an avalanche path fitted with protective works, and the natural-risk prevention plan, like the risk report attached to the preliminary agreement, says what can be built and insured. Then the exposure, the roof and the timber. Home Select has these documents checked before any offer and tests the price against comparable sales, a house median of €8,800/m².

What does a chalet in Les Houches cost?

The median stands at €8,800/m² across 30 sales recorded over the 12 months to end of June 2026 (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, October 2026 release, 12 months to end of June 2026). It is a market benchmark, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.

How long does it take to buy in Les Houches with a property finder?

The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Les Houches and on your availability: Home Select frames it at the brief, then holds it. Properties are first seen on video, and your decisive viewings are grouped into a single trip.

How do you reach off-market properties in Les Houches?

Through the network and direct approach: Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before they go on sale, and also contacts owners when the setting calls for it. In Les Houches, the monitoring starts with two sectors: the village, then Les Chavants and Bellevue. That is often where the unfindable property is.
