Charming duplex with character in the heart of Hérémence – Val d’Hérens

A rare opportunity in an authentic village

In the heart of the picturesque village of Hérémence, in an authentic building listed as a historic monument, a magnificent duplex in perfect condition is revealed, nestled within a charming small co-ownership.

The apartment enjoys an ideal location, just a stone’s throw from all the shops and services:

• Edelweiss Market
• Post Office
• Café-restaurant

A bus stop nearby provides access to the Thyon-Les Collons ski lifts, the gateway to the 4 Vallées ski area, one of the largest in Switzerland, without a car.

An exceptional property, blending history and modern comfort. The building underwent a complete renovation at the end of the 1980s (facade, roof), carried out to the highest standards.

Why fall under the spell of Hérémence?

Hérémence is an authentic alpine village in the Val d’Hérens, located at an altitude of 1230 meters, where tradition and modernity blend together in the heart of a preserved natural setting. The village has preserved a remarkable built heritage – chalets, barns, and haylofts – and features a contemporary church that is as unusual as it is impressive, a true architectural masterpiece.

Just 17 minutes from Sion, the Valais capital, the region offers direct access to the 4 Vallées ski area and its 450 km of slopes in winter, as well as a fantastic playground for hiking, climbing and outdoor activities in summer. The famous Euseigne pyramids and the impressive Grande Dixence dam complete the region’s must-see attractions, which can be discovered all year round.

A rare living or holiday destination, between Valais authenticity, preserved heritage and direct access to the mountains.

A municipal subsidy for your primary residence:

• The municipality of Hérémence actively encourages year-round residency on its territory. It offers housing and accommodation assistance of up to CHF 25,000 for people building or buying their primary residence in the municipality. The year-round use of the property is guaranteed by an entry in the Land Register, and the monitoring is carried out by the municipal administration.

A strong argument for future residents who want to settle down permanently in this authentic alpine setting.
