Eliasch
About This Home
Baufritz has been manufacturing timber homes in Bavaria since 1896, and the Eliasch is their dedicated alpine chalet model. Steeply pitched roof, generous overhangs, a natural wooden facade, and multiple balconies positioned for mountain views: the design is built around a specific site type and makes no apology for it.
Baufritz's ecological timber frame and signature wood shaving insulation are standard, and the energy-efficient systems are calibrated for mountain conditions. Customisation covers interior layouts, finishes, and smart home integration. Weather-resistant construction and planning support from Baufritz are both included in the process.
At just over 115 m² with two bedrooms, the Eliasch works well as a primary residence or second home in upland settings. For buyers with an alpine or rural upland plot, it is the most architecturally coherent prefab chalet option in this price bracket.
What We Love
The Eliasch commits fully to alpine chalet architecture and executes it with Baufritz's ecological construction behind it. The multiple balconies are positioned specifically for views rather than as decorative additions.
