The property market in Saint-Jean-d'Aulps
Saint-Jean-d'Aulps lies in the Vallée d'Aulps, around thirty minutes from the shores of Lake Geneva, a little over an hour from Geneva Airport and a quarter of an hour from Morzine. The village is lived in all year round, and the Roc d'Enfer ski area brings the Portes du Soleil lift pass to its doorstep. Buyers come here for a main home with room to spare, and investors for a second home with good potential for capital growth.
Where to buy in Saint-Jean-d'Aulps, from the village centre to La Moussière
The historic centre, gathered around the ruins of the Abbaye d'Aulps and close to everyday shops, appeals to families looking for large village houses to live in all year round. If skiing and the outdoors come first, buyers look higher up, around La Moussière, for chalets with uninterrupted views right by the Grande Terche gondola, the main way up to the Roc d'Enfer ski area.
Property prices in Saint-Jean-d'Aulps
Prices here are lower than in Morzine or Les Gets, and they vary mainly with the type and condition of the property. The average is around €4,100 to €4,200 per m². A functional apartment near the lifts usually sells for €3,700 to €3,900 per m², a sound entry point for buy-to-let. A recent or fully renovated chalet on the upper slopes often fetches €4,700 to €5,000 per m² or more, reflecting its sunny aspect, the privacy of the plot and the views. Farmhouses in need of renovation are increasingly rare and much sought after.
Types of property and local architecture
At the Grande Terche resort, at the foot of the slopes, most homes are ski-in/ski-out apartments and studios with a bunk alcove, which also suit mountain bikers in summer. Away from the lifts, detached log-built chalets sit among the trees.
A few old farmhouses awaiting restoration stand along the paths up to Damoz des Moulins. The Graydon pasture, at 1,340 metres, at the foot of the Roc d'Enfer, has kept its traditional alpine chalets, away from the bustle and reached by road or, in summer, on foot from the gondola.
