Listing No. 1653-26-2
An XXL balcony facing the Fribourg Pre-Alps
In Châtel-sur-Montsalvens, in the heart of the Fribourg Pre-Alps, this 2.5-room apartment offers a privileged retreat between mountains, forest, and lake. Built in 2020, it attracts with its contemporary architecture, generous terrace, and especially with the feeling of space and calm that one experiences from the very first moments.
Located on the first floor of a recent residence with 14 units, the apartment benefits from a south-facing orientation that generously lets in light throughout the day. From the entrance, the numerous integrated storage spaces provide true functionality. A large annex space, currently used as a laundry room, cellar, and pantry, allows for a perfectly organized interior. A modern bathroom with an Italian shower completes this area.
Then the space opens up. The living room, dining area, and kitchen now form a single beautiful contemporary living space, designed to prioritize volume and brightness. The open kitchen, fully equipped with quality materials, naturally integrates into the whole. The large bay windows immediately draw the eye to the fir trees and surrounding hills, creating the impression that the landscape enters the apartment.
The current configuration is also worth highlighting: the choice was made to open the former bedroom to significantly enlarge the living space. For those who wish to return to the traditional layout of a 2.5-room apartment, it is entirely possible to recreate an independent bedroom by simply closing off this space with a partition. An interesting flexibility that allows adapting the accommodation to one's lifestyle.
But the real highlight is certainly outside. With approximately 32 m², the balcony has particularly generous dimensions for an apartment of this type. Partially covered and shielded from view, it becomes a true additional room during the nice days. Having lunch outside, setting up an outdoor lounge, enjoying the sun, or simply contemplating the mountains: here, the outside is fully part of daily life.
Comfort is also on the agenda. The recent construction requires no work and benefits from underfloor heating powered by an efficient pellet system, keeping costs manageable. A private parking space in the underground garage completes the property, while visitor spaces are available outside.
And then, there is Châtel-sur-Montsalvens. Perched at about 925 meters above sea level, this small village in Gruyère offers a remarkable natural environment while remaining easily accessible. Lake Montsalvens and the Gorges de la Jogne are in immediate proximity, while the Moléson and the iconic landscapes of Gruyère compose the surrounding scenery. Hiking, mountain biking, and nature escapes practically start right at your doorstep.
Charmey and its facilities are just a few minutes away (shops open on weekends), including the Bains de la Gruyère and winter activities. Bulle is also quickly accessible. Public transport ensures connections with the Bulle–Jaun axis, allowing for a combination of this mountain quality of life with everyday needs.
With its recent construction, immense balcony, brightness, and location in the heart of a preserved environment, this apartment represents a particularly attractive alternative for a single person or a couple wishing to leave urban hustle without isolating themselves. Its layout and location may also present interest for a rental investment project.
A contemporary apartment where one seeks both accommodation and a living environment. To be discovered during a visit with Neho.

Frequently asked questions
Neho stands for full transparency – including when it comes to buying your property. Taking the virtual tour is necessary before you can request a viewing appointment for the following reasons:
- Saving time: Explore the property from home and check if it meets your criteria.
- Pre-selection: Quickly compare multiple properties and filter out those that do not suit you.
- Detailed view: Our virtual 360-degree tours offer a complete and realistic overview of the property. Through the virtual tour, you can better picture the room sizes and explore small storage spaces. This way, you will avoid unpleasant surprises during the viewing appointment.
We pre-qualify all potential buyers by checking whether they can actually afford the property in question. This way, sellers know right away that you are seriously interested in buying, saving you and the seller a lot of time and effort.
Process: To assess your solvency, we recommend a brief phone call with our financial partner, Strike. Alternatively, we can talk directly with your bank advisor and obtain the necessary information from them.
Proof of funds: For properties with high demand, a proof of funds may be required before the viewing appointment. Our financial partner Strike will be happy to issue this document for you on short notice.
We advise that you prepare for the viewing appointment. It is best to have already discussed possible mortgage options with one or more financial institutions. Our financial partner Strike will gladly provide you with an attractive second offer. Schedule a free phone appointment now.
