Design retreat with epic mountain views in a former sanatorium

Built in 1900 as a luxury private clinic, this former sanatorium now houses a panoramic retreat, where epic views and an immaculate interior once again offer restorative, reinvigorating benefits.

Created as a specialized aerotherapy and heliotherapy resort to treat tuberculosis patients and chronically stressed urbanites, this Alpine-clinic-has turned into a luxury mountain retreat with unrivaled views.

The former treatment balconies have been transformed into a spacious, enclosed living and dining room lined with generous French windows. The apartment retains its pristine, vivid interior décor, featuring startlingly white walls, a gleaming chevron wood floor, and a sleek, practical layout.

A curated selection of contemporary wall hangings, cool fixtures and top-of-line design furnishings update the heritage space, and its key location opposite some of the region’s most dramatic jagged peaks draws the eyes outward. Redesigned as the secondary residence of a prominent Zurich family in the mid 20th century, the apartment’s more recent renovations in 1989 and 2011 earned spots on television and in Architecture Suisse magazine, as well as other publications.
