2 The modern chalet Chesa Miralago is one of two almost identical chalets. It has been built on a beautiful and privileged location above Lake St. Moritz (at the far left on this photo), close to the centre of the sophisticated Swiss winter resort. I m a man of simple tastes. I m always satisfied with the best. We can safely say that Oscar Wilde has never skied, but his immortal statement perfectly characterises the sophisticated lifestyle in the Swiss town of St. Moritz, the birthplace of winter tourism by the late nineteenth century. As if he had been there. This modern and even by local standards ultra-luxurious chalet arose in 2009 on one of the most prestigious locations in St. Moritz, boasting an enchanting view over the lake. The legendary Irish writer would have felt himself completely at home in Chesa Miralago.

The chalet, by the architect also described as a town villa, consists of a solid base of quarried stone supporting a cube clad in greyed wood, and it opens up toward the south with large glass panels.

Available for offers prior to the auction. St. Moritz is so much more than the famous ski resort in the Swiss Alps where the international jet set strolls along Via Serlas in the village centre, enjoys the fun and excitement on perfectly prepared slopes and is entertained during the Snow Polo World Cup on the frozen lake, hosted here since St. Moritz is a way of life. Some places on earth are simply unique and therefore possess this irresistible appeal to the happy few. They who can afford to only settle for the best, the lifestyle Oscar Wilde so passionately embraced. St. Moritz has everything a place needs to be desired. It was the healing mineral springs that drew the first visitors to this magical place in the Engadin region. These natural springs were the basis for St. Moritz as a spa and health resort and the establishment of high-end hotels and Villas. The wealthy tourists were already there and the stunning mountain landscape of Graubünden did the rest. Visitors wanted to be active and discover the mountains so it is not surprising that, by the late nineteenth century, St. Moritz was the place where winter tourism was developed into luxurious winter entertainment and a new source of revenue. TOP LOCATION Today, in 2017, St. Moritz has lost none of its attraction. Wellness treatments, skiing, signature shopping, gastronomic delights and sleeping in some of Switzerland s best hotels are just a few of the pleasures that define daily life in St. Moritz. When it comes to luxury, class and elegance, St. Moritz is still leading. The Chalet is situated on the (north) western bank, enjoying a magnificent view over Lake St. Moritz and the snowcapped mountains of the mighty, over ten thousand feet high, mountain massif of Piz Rosatsch. It is the same view the guests of Chesa Miralago can enjoy every day. In 2009, two modern and highly luxurious chalets were built on a beautiful plot nearby Hotel Belvedere >>
