Benedikta
Vandans, Austria
Tucked away in the heart of Austria’s Montafon Valley, Benedikta is a historic Montafon home dating back to 1836, cherished by the same family for generations. Surrounded by forested mountain slopes, wide valleys, and striking alpine peaks, the house tells a story of heritage, craftsmanship, and enduring tradition. Carefully restored with great sensitivity, it preserves its original character – from the sage-green shutters and solid exterior walls to lovingly maintained historical details. Here, tradition and modernity blend seamlessly, creating a harmonious balance between timeless architecture and contemporary design. Inside, a sense of warmth, tranquility, and refined elegance unfolds.
Original features such as intricately hand-carved doors, wood paneling, and traditional details – including the rare “soul windows” – give the house its distinctive depth and unique character. This atmosphere is complemented by Vipp’s clean, contemporary design, evident in the striking stainless-steel kitchen, curated furnishings, and thoughtfully designed retreat spaces. Four elegant bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, spacious living areas, a sauna with mountain views, and quiet reading nooks create a place that invites relaxation, reflection, and enjoyment. The Benedikta Montafon House is a retreat where alpine heritage meets modern aesthetics – calm, inspiring, and full of character.
