"Beyond perfect" is how Victoria Mather summed up La Ferme de Moudon, a 17th century Savoyard farm building transformed into an icon of contemporary design by Nicky Dobree. Kevin McCloud on Grand Designs Abroad even described the interior as "like something from a James Bond set". A minimalist masterpiece, the large open plan living space is instantly calming, blending ancient timbers above with carefully chosen contemporary furnishings below. Light floods in from two vast picture windows, while the uninterrupted views of the national park, pistes and powder fields give the feeling that all you survey is your own.
The attention to detail is exceptional. Every piece of furniture is bespoke or adapted specifically for the house. The dramatic Italian kitchen is state-of-the-art, demarcated by a chic dark wood bar where you can watch the chef cook up a storm. Each bedroom is individually decorated, with the master suite taking up practically the entire upper floor. Downstairs there is a sauna and second sitting room with a plasma screen; outside a hot-tub. Set in its own grounds in a tiny hamlet, it is very private, yet just a three minute chauffeured drive from the centre of Les Gets and the main lift hub.
