Dolomite Chalet, a chalet rental in Italy

Between Mountains and Meadows

In this chalet, Pedevilla Architects created a structure that is sensitive to its surroundings, opening entirely toward the valley. The design blends contemporary lines with traditional materials, creating an ascetic unity that invites contemplation.

The interior palette is consistently light and local. Floors and doors are crafted from regional pine, while the walls are made of white Dolomite concrete. Soft Loden cloth, a traditional textile, is used for the curtains. In one bedroom, custom stone pine furniture adds a fragrant, alpine touch, while the other features rustic antiques, reintroducing nature and history inside. Features include the Gothic-style chairs with keyhole backs designed by Tyrolean company Haidacher, and a curved coffee table. Large windows let in lots of natural light, and window-ledge recesses make a perfect perch for admiring the snowy backdrop. Guests may spot deer, foxes, and raptors.

Layout

The 95-square-meter home is split across two floors. The first floor features a generous living room with a well-equipped kitchen, a sofa group (one converts to a bed), and a balcony. This level also has a bathroom with both a rain-shower and a bathtub. The second floor holds the two double-bed bedrooms, one with stone pine furniture and one with antiques.

Good to know

This home is a non-smoking property, and pets are not permitted. The layout is spread over two floors and includes stairs to the bedrooms. As the chalet is located at 1,200 meters in a small hamlet, a car is essential for exploring the region and accessing ski lifts in San Vigilio.

Around

The house is located at 1,200m, in the majestic South Tirol Dolomites, and in the village of Pliscia, with its 23 inhabitants, four farmhouses, one church, and countless deer. In Pliscia, guests can get dairy and fresh milk direct from the farmyard, and a neighbor handcrafts keys and cribs from wood.

Pliscia is located just 3km from Enneberg, and a further 4km from St. Vigil, base of the Kronplatz Ski Resort. The nearby Valley of Pederü offers a 15km-long cross-country track, as well as diverse downhill slopes. The nearby Fanes-Sennes Park is a year-round destination for touring, mountain-biking and climbing.
