Question 1

What is Le Hameau?

Accepted Answer

Le Hameau is a residential development project in La Tzoumaz, Valais, Switzerland, comprising 11 individual homes: 5 private chalets and 6 apartments across two residence buildings. The project is developed by Home Partner Development and is scheduled for completion in phases between December 2027 and December 2028. All properties are designated as primary residences.

Question 2

Are these first residences only?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All properties at Le Hameau are classified as primary residences (résidence principale / Erstwohnsitz) under Swiss federal and Valais cantonal law. This is a legal designation, not merely a commercial preference. Purchasers are required to establish Le Hameau as their primary domicile. This cannot be used as a holiday home, second home, or investment rental property.

Question 3

Are second residences or holiday lets permitted?

Accepted Answer

No. Under the Lex Weber (Swiss federal legislation on second homes), and consistent with La Tzoumaz's commune policy, new residential construction must be designated as primary residences in communes where second homes already exceed 20% of total housing stock. Le Hameau is a primary residence development and this status is permanent.

Question 4

What types of properties are available?

Accepted Answer

Le Hameau offers: 5 private chalets ranging from 178 to 225 m² with 4–5 bedrooms; and 6 apartments (3 Type A, 3 Type B) ranging from 130 to 160 m². Each property has its own outdoor space and dedicated parking.

Question 5

Are prices available?

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Question 8

Who is the developer?

Home Partner Development has a strong track record in the delivery of alpine homes and manages the project from design through to handover and beyond. You can learn more at homepartner.ch.

Question 9

Where exactly is La Tzoumaz?

Accepted Answer

La Tzoumaz is a mountain village at approximately 1,500 metres altitude in the canton of Valais, Switzerland. It sits above the Rhône valley near Riddes and is connected to the 4 Vallées ski domain. It is approximately 20 minutes from Sion (the Valais cantonal capital), 20 minutes from Martigny, and 2 hours from Geneva by road.

Question 10

Are floor plans and technical specifications available?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Detailed floor plans, technical specifications, and construction documentation are available in the project brochure, which is provided upon request. A dedicated sales team member can walk you through the documentation in English, French, or German.

Question 11

Can non-Swiss nationals purchase at Le Hameau?

Accepted Answer

Swiss residential property purchase by foreign nationals is regulated under the Lex Koller. The applicability of this legislation depends on the buyer's nationality and residence status. As Le Hameau properties are designated as primary residences, different rules apply compared to second homes or investment properties. We strongly recommend that all non-Swiss prospective buyers consult a Swiss legal advisor before proceeding. Our sales team can provide referrals to experienced advisors.

Question 12

What is the expected completion date?

Accepted Answer

Completion and handover is phased. Chalets B1 and B4 are scheduled for December 2027. Chalets B3 and B5, along with both apartment residences, are scheduled for December 2028. Please contact our sales team for the most up-to-date construction timeline and handover schedule.
