At the far end of the Vaud Alps, Ormont-Dessus is home to the resort of Les Diablerets at the foot of the glacier.
Flat prices in Ormont-Dessus run at CHF 9,100 per m², a level that has stayed in step with Vaud. A commune like this one moves with the cantonal cycle rather than against it, so the wider trend is a fair guide for your own estimate. Out of 132 communes measured in Vaud, Ormont-Dessus sits at position 68. The communes immediately above and below are the ones a buyer will actually compare against, far more than the cantonal average.
Per square metre, a flat in Ormont-Dessus at CHF 9,100 costs more than a house at CHF 8,400. Large houses spread their price across surface nobody pays the full rate for: corridors, cellars, attic space under the eaves. Up 3.2 percent in a year, Ormont-Dessus has been priced by whoever was willing to pay most for a small number of properties. In a commune with few sales, that is exactly how a median gets moved.
Against the District d'Aigle district the gap comes to 26 percent. This is the comparison that carries weight for an estimate: communes in one district share a labour market, a transport network and the same pool of buyers. The largest group of homes in Ormont-Dessus, 37 percent, dates from before 1919, with the rest spread across the other bands. Where stock is this varied, a commune price per m² carries less weight and the comparison has to come down to buildings of the same age. At 3.7 rooms and 93 m² on average, homes in Ormont-Dessus are sized for households rather than single occupants. If you are looking for a studio or a two-room flat, expect a thinner choice and less room to negotiate.
The median flat in Ormont-Dessus comes out at CHF 9,100 per m², a gap of 1 percent against the Vaud median. That figure covers every flat sold, whatever the floor, the age of the building or the state of the kitchen. The 25-year record opens at CHF 3,800 and closes at CHF 8,700, +129 percent apart. Use it to sanity-check an estimate rather than to project forward, since nothing in the series promises the next decade repeats it.
Ormont-Dessus turns over enough stock to give a reliable read. The practical benefit shows at negotiation, where both sides can point to comparable sales from the same year, which shortens the distance between asking price and signature. If you are weighing a sale in Ormont-Dessus, the useful question is not the commune price but yours. A few minutes and a handful of characteristics are enough to place your property inside the local range.
