Luxury flats in Crans Montana where Roger Moore owned a home and skied

Only for your eyes! The ultra-luxurious apartments for sale in Crans-Montana, the ski resort where the late Bond actor Roger Moore owned a home

  • Ultra-luxury apartment for sale in the Swiss ski resort of Crans-Montana
  • The apartments have three to five bedrooms and are located on the ski slope
  • Crans-Montana captured the heart of Roger Moore who bought a house there

The Swiss ski resort of Crans-Montana has attracted quite a few celebrities in the past, including the late Roger Moore who owned a ski chalet there.

If you have deep pockets, you could follow in the movie star’s footsteps by purchasing a property at the resort, which offers a plethora of facilities for adventurous James Bond types.

However, you’ll need a 007 grade pay package to afford one of the luxury Six Senses condos currently for sale in Crans-Montana, which has been compared to the Holland Park of the ski world for its understated wealth .

Six Senses Hotel in Crans-Montana has built 17 adjoining residences that overlook the ski slopes

The resort is said to exude quiet class without being too flashy. That is how the 17 homes built next to the Six Senses Hotel could indeed be described. Only three are now reportedly for sale.

The price for owning a piece of this snowy paradise starts at 7.5 million Swiss francs, the equivalent of £6.8 million. The price is for a three bedroom house without interior.

It means that costs can increase significantly for a five-bedroom apartment with the interior design package from AW2, the designers who are also responsible for the hotel’s interior.

The apartments for sale are so exclusive that the only images available are computer generated images (photo).

A house that is only for your eyes

Roger Moore’s skiing was featured – along with his stunt doubles – in the Bond movie For Your Eyes Only.

It was filmed in the Italian ski resort of Cortina instead of the Swiss resort of Crans-Montana.

But it was the Swiss ski resort of Crans-Montana that captured Roger Moore’s heart – so much so that he bought a family home there.

Roger Moore bought a chalet in Crans-Montana

MailOnline spoke exclusively with Jorg Romang, who was Roger Moore’s ski instructor and boyfriend of 25 years.

Mr Romang said: ‘Roger wasn’t a great skier and was just happy to get through the day in the mountains. But he was always great company and a lot of fun to be with. He was my only client who ever fell off a chair at the ski lift.’

He added: “Their ski chalet in Crans-Montana was a real retreat for Roger and his family. It was a ski in ski out chalet and they were very happy with that.’

The 17 Six Senses homes vary in size from three-room apartments to five-room apartments

The hotel prides itself on its eco-approach, with 100 percent of its heating and cooling needs being provided by a sustainably sourced wood pellet system. The hotel also uses seasonal local products in the restaurant and the alpine water is bottled on site.

And for those who really want to enjoy the alpine spirit, there is a large – working – alpine horn at the entrance to the hotel’s underground car park.

The luxury seeps through the walls of the Six Senses setup and is emphasized by things like a spa for guests, who can even choose from a ‘pillow menu’.

Those who purchase one of the apartments have access to all the hotel’s facilities, including the wellness suite with an ice fountain, a Finnish sauna and a yoga studio, as well as an indoor pool with a suspended wooden ceiling.

In addition to 140 kilometers of ski slopes and a snow park with an Olympic half pipe, Crans-Montana has an ice rink (photo) and two sports centers

With such attention to detail, what better place to return to at the end of an active day than to a luxury ski-in ski-out condo.

Whether you ski like James Bond – as Roger Moore and his stunt double did in the movie For Your Eyes Only – or prefer mountain biking, ice skating or climbing, Crans-Montana offers something for everyone.

In addition to 140 kilometers of ski slopes and a snow park with an Olympic half pipe, there are four golf courses, an ice rink, two sports centers and three indoor curling rinks. It’s a destination for the whole family, albeit with a bank account the size of Hollywood.
