Description

Ref. Chalet Queen - Chalet Queen is a single-storey property in the prestigious les Bois area of Chamonix with significant development potential. The property is on a good-sized, flat plot close to the golf course, Flégère lift and village of les Praz and has excellent views of both les Drus and the Mont Blanc range.

Whilst the current house is in dated condition, its value lies in the renovation and extension potential, an increasing rarety given recent planning changes heavily restricting new development. The rules allow for an extension of up to 200m² on top of the existing 122m², to create a sizeable property that could not be built from new.

More details on the construction potential are available on request.

Key Features
- Existing chalet with significant extension potential to a total of 322m²
- Located in the sought-after les Bois area
- Impressive, uninterrupted views of les Drus and the Mont Blanc range
- Proximity to the Flégère lift, golf course and les Praz
- High-end rental and added-value potential

Our opinion
This is an increasingly rare proposition and the only way to secure an effectively new-build chalet of more than 200m², given recent planning restrictions. It is in a prime position, in a tranquil spot with excellent views on all sides.

Location
Chalet Queen is located towards the end of a private, no-through road in the heart of les Bois, a mostly residential, exclusive area to the north-west of Chamonix centre. The area lies opposite Chamonix Golf Club and is a 15-minute walk to the village of les Praz, as well as the Flégère lift. Chamonix itself is just over 3km away, a little over 5 minutes by car.

The closest bus stop is 300 metres away, with les Tines train station 400 metres away on foot.
