Situated in the 4 Valleys ski region overlooking Rhone Valley, Nendaz is renowned for being one of the most family-friendly ski resorts in Switzerland. 

Property buyers will find a good variety of luxury traditional chalets and apartments for sale to suit a range of budgets. Nendaz is a good place to look for a genuine ski-in ski-out property since many apartments and chalets offer direct access from the long red piste that runs down into the centre of Nendaz. 

Those who enjoy traditional Swiss architecture won’t be disappointed as the market is dominated by chalets that feature typical sloped roofs and extensive use of wood and stone from the Rhone Valley. 

Due its location high up on a sunny plateau, many properties in Nendaz feature incredible far-reaching views across the valley. As a result, developers and architects have put an emphasis on large outdoor living spaces from which you can enjoy the sunshine and spectacular alpine views. 

Unlike nearby Verbier there is usually a good choice of property for sale in Nendaz. There were many apartments and chalets built here before the Les Webber laws put an end to the construction of new second homes. As a result there is usually a steady supply and chalets and apartments for sale.

Property prices in Nendaz can vary dramatically. The most desirable locations are the roads just above the village that have direct ski-in ski-out access under the Tracouet gondola. 

After that, anything in the centre within a 5-10 minute walk of the ski lifts will also be in high demand - both to buy and to rent.

Cheaper locations can be found as you head down the valley into small hamlets such as Sornard and Basse-Nendaz. From here you’ll need to drive to the ski lifts or use the local ski bus.

Most foreign investors and second home owners tend to focus their property search in central Nendaz and the roads above the village with direct ski access. Expect to pay between CHF 2-3m here for a high quality chalet in a good location and views.

Apartment prices vary considerably depending on the age of the building. You can find cheaper 2 or 3 bedroom apartments under CHF 1m in the older 1980s buildings in the centre of Nendaz. A similar apartment in a high quality new build residence such as Mer de Glace would be CHF 1-2m. If you are planning to rent out your new ski property it is often worth focusing on the new buildings as these often have additional amenities such as hot tubs and swimming pools that will increase the occupancy of your property.
