Holiday Chalet with Panoramic View in Austria

A Unique and Especially Beautiful Location!

This holiday home is situated in a beautiful south-facing hillside location with sun and unobstructed views at the entrance to the Lachtal valley. Located in a charming and quiet holiday settlement, the area retains a rural and idyllic atmosphere – just as one imagines Austria to be.
The Lachtal is not just a winter paradise! In spring, when the meadows turn lush green again and the mountain peaks still wear their white caps, nature is already brimming with life.
Especially in times of a warming climate, the Murau district offers a wonderful summer with still moderate temperatures, which are increasingly appreciated – especially in the evenings and at night. While cities swelter in the summer heat, here you’ll find a true paradise. It’s not just the fresh mountain air and pure alpine water that people seek, but also a pleasantly mild summer climate.
In autumn, when the larch trees turn red and nature presents itself in a blaze of colors, the air becomes crystal clear – the perfect time for hiking has arrived.
Anyone seeking nature, relaxation, tradition, human connection, and security will feel right at home here – this is still one of those places where the world feels right!
The Holiday Home with Beautiful Panoramic Views
Upon arrival, you can park your car on a gravel parking space with an existing electric charging station. A paved path provides a solid and clean access to the chalet.
Already charming is the typical alpine character amidst the lightly wooded surroundings. This holiday home has been cleverly built in the elevated part of the plot to further enhance its position and offer an extra advantage in terms of location and views!
Before entering the house, there is a level green area (facing southwest) designed for enjoying the landscape and forest air.
The house also offers a special feature in its layout! To make the most of the location, the living area is situated on the upper floor, while the bedrooms are located on the lower floor.
On the ground floor, the two bedrooms are positioned on the sunny southwest side. Additionally, you will find a fully equipped bathroom with a toilet, a storage room, and a technical room. Beneath the staircase is the former tank room, which could be repurposed for storage. A central hallway leads through the ground floor to the staircase.
Upstairs, you will find the large and open living area – the heart of the holiday home. This space is ideally oriented toward the sun (south and southwest) and features an open fireplace, making it a true feel-good space! From here, you can step onto the generously designed covered terrace to enjoy the most beautiful sunsets.
The kitchenette is subtly integrated into the living area and adequately equipped for holiday use. Also on the upper floor is a second full bathroom, a separate toilet, and a storage room.
The concept of the chalet is well thought out and perfectly tailored for holiday use.
The house is built in a combination of solid and timber construction and is in structurally very good condition.
Not only has the house been continuously maintained – in recent years, and quite recently, several upgrades have been made! The heating is now operated via an air-source heat pump, and the heat distribution is via underfloor heating. In addition, the roof of the holiday home was just newly redone (April 2025)!
The combination of this sought-after location, beautiful panoramic views, proximity to Lachtal, the possibility for use as a second residence, and all the recent upgrades and extras make this an absolutely outstanding property!
The Plot
The beautifully and quietly located plot offers a total area of 745 m², providing ample outdoor space. The grounds are mostly grassed and partly planted with coniferous trees. At an elevation of approximately 1,450 meters above sea level, maintaining the green areas is considerably easier due to slower plant growth. A power pole is located in the southeastern part of the property but is largely obscured by the fir trees. A small garden shed provides additional storage space.
The land is designated for holiday housing and open land. The property is connected to a private water source (which supplies the entire settlement), electricity, and the local sewage system. Access is via a gravel private road connected to the public road (with regulated access).
Further Information
The zoning as a general holiday area allows for use as a vacation residence as well as for rental purposes.
The plot is not located in any hazard zone and, according to the Austrian Environment Agency, is not listed in the contaminated site register or the suspected contamination database. The owner is also unaware of any soil contamination.
A holiday home in a truly beautiful and peaceful location!
