Are you looking to buy a property in the beautiful Austrian Alps?

We only handle properties in the best alpine resorts in Austria. 

The beautiful lake side town of Zell am See is one of the most popular and includes some of the most highly sought after properties in Austria. Its close proximity to both the ski lifts and Lake Zell makes properties here an ideal investment. Zell am See also benefits from glacier skiing to over 3,000m on the nearby Kitzsteinhorn Glacier at Kaprun.

Bad Hofgastein is a more raditional Austrian village and includes some of the best properties in Austria for families with young children. Many of the best apartments for sale in Bad Hofgastein and its neighbour — Bad Gastein — are situated at the foot of the piste or just a short walk to the ski lifts. 

In the Austrian Tyrol region, popular high-atitude resorts include Ischgl and Solden. The Tyrol region is renowned as one of the top skiing destinations in Europe and boasts some of the most architecturally striking properties found in Austria, perfectly combining traditional Austrian features with modern architecture. 

Further west and you reach Austria“s famous Arlberg region and the world-famous resorts of St Anton and Lech. Chalets and apartments for sale are hard to find here and prices are high. If you are looking to buy a property in this exclusive region then do get in touch with the Alpine Property Finders team.
