What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Switzerland?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Switzerland is like. They answered...
"Expat homes and apartments in Switzerland typically offer spacious layout, large floor-to-ceiling windows, and modern furnishing. Many homes and apartments come with modern kitchens with state-of-the-art appliances, designer bathrooms, and ample storage space. They often have balconies with stunning views of the surrounding landscapes, including the Alps and Lake Geneva. Expat homes and apartments are usually in close proximity to amenities, such as shops and restaurants. In addition, public transport is usually conveniently located nearby," remarked another expat in Switzerland.
"It's a ski chalet, 2 bdrm, 1 1/2 bath with a large loft. It can easily sleep 8-10 people. The shower (and when the electricy turns off and on) is the pacing item here," said a member in Wengen, Switzerland.
