Description

This chalet was built in 1946 and designed by Maurice Novarina, a renowned French architect. It is situated on sloping land offering fabulous south-facing views down the valley du Risse and towards le Roc d'Enfer. The property has been recently renovated to a high standard whilst keeping the integrity of the original Architect's design.
The ground floor has an entrance hall opening to the living/dining room with both a fire place and a log burner. There are French windows opening onto a wonderful veranda, perfect for dining and capitalising on the beautiful views. The living area has 4 picture windows. Also on this floor there is a study, WC and a kitchen with internal stairs down to the pantry and cellar.
The first floor consists of 5 bedrooms (the 3 largest with French windows onto to a balcony) and two modern bathrooms. Above this floor there are two newly created loft rooms accessed via a loft ladder.
On the lowest level, the cellar also has external access and has windows for natural light. There is a laundry area and large pantry. The pellet boiler (installed in 2019) and wood is stored here.
There is an original single garage which is built into the slope below the chalet with steps joining the two. There is approximately 3800m2 of land around the chalet, some of it wooded. The roof has been recovered and the guttering replaced +/- 20 years ago. The more recent renovation includes double-glazing, insulation, new electrics, new septic tank, water tank of 3000L and the installation of solar panels. Also clearing the land to expose the views, extending the parking area and adding a car port.
This property could be completely autonomous with the addition of a battery for the solar panels. The land around it is non-constructible, so peace and quiet will reign. There are plans for a possible expansion, the Architect's drawings are included in the sale.
This chalet combines a wonderful sense of seclusion with proximity to ski resorts (i.e. Hirmentaz 3mins drive, Portes du Soleil & Grand Massif each 45mins drive). The local villages of Bellevaux and Lullin have all the commerces you need, Thonon-les-Bains and the lakeside is 25mins drive and Geneva airport only 55mins.

About Alpine Property, Haute-Savoie

153 Chemin du Chargeau 74110 - Morzine.

Alpine Property was formed in 1999 to address the need for an estate agency serving International property buyers in the Alps. It was centered around the principle that the complex and often daunting process of buying property abroad is best served by professional, local advice in your own language.

In its infancy, Alpine Property concentrated on properties in the Morzine and Les Gets area, finding foreign clients for the local Estate Agents in the area. It soon became clear that there was a pressing need for a full-service estate agency specifically catering for foreign buyers - and so it was that Alpine Property expanded its service to become a one-stop-shop offering its own properties and accompanying clients along the entire property buying process. In order to provide this service in France, Estate Agents must hold a Carte Professionelle to show that they are properly qualified, licensed and insured. Renewed annually, the Carte Professionelle requires agents to demonstrate their professional ability, be fluent in French and to have taken out professional indemnity insurance. These rigorous demands and a lengthy bureaucratic process mean that very often foreign Estate Agents operating in France do not have this all-important card, and therefore 'pass you on' to local Estate Agents to complete the formalities of the sale once you have verbally agreed to buy. This often leads to confusion and errors in this important final stage.

This change coincided with an expansion in both scale and service - Alpine Property began to offer properties across the whole of the Haute Savoie region and invested heavily in its unique and innovative website to provide the most comprehensive buying and selling service available in the French Alps.
