Description

**Chalet La Ferme – Exceptional Historic Farmhouse in the Heart of La Chapelle d'Abondance
Price:** €1,590,000
**Location:** La Chapelle d'Abondance, Portes du Soleil, Haute-Savoie, France

A rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique alpine property in one of the most charming ski-resort villages in the Portes du Soleil! This historical farmhouse, dating from 1680, has been thoughtfully extended and fully renovated in 2007/2008, blending authentic character with modern comfort throughout.

**Property Highlights**
**Spacious Family Home:** Approximately 430 m² of living space across three floors, beautifully combining original architectural features with contemporary finishes.

**Bedroom Layout:** A total of 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, including a master suite and several generous guest rooms — perfect for family living or rental use.

**Independent Apartment:** On the garden level, a self-contained one-bedroom apartment with living room/kitchen, private garden access, bathroom and utility spaces — ideal for guests or rental income.

**Living Space:** A stunning upper-floor living room with high ceilings, exposed original beams and a feature fireplace, opening to a well-equipped kitchen and mezzanine area.

**Outdoor Living:** Sunny, south-facing garden with terrace and sunken jacuzzi, plus a double garage, car port and off-road parking.

**Caves For Development** - The spacious cave areas could be converted into a swimming pool or cinema room.

**Practical Features:** Modern insulation, updated windows and efficient heating system, all delivered sympathetically within the traditional farmhouse fabric.

**Unbeatable Central Location**
Perfectly positioned in the centre of La Chapelle d'Abondance, this property offers immediate access to village amenities — shops, restaurants and ski bus service are just steps away. The ski bus stops nearby, connecting to the Portes du Soleil domain and Châtel's extensive piste network, while summer mountain trails and outdoor activities abound.

**Investment & Development Potential**
This is more than just a beautiful home — the substantial 1 196 m² land parcel, situated right in the centre of the village, presents significant investment and redevelopment potential. With such a large buildable plot in a prime alpine location, possibilities include:

Expansion or additional structures (subject to planning consent)

Commercial or tourism-oriented development (e.g., boutique chalets, guesthouses, or seasonal rental units)

Enhanced revenue streams leveraging the independent apartment and existing bedroom layout

Given the combination of location, scale and flexibility, this property represents a compelling buy for both lifestyle buyers and astute investors.

Why Chalet La Ferme Stands Out:-
A stunning historic gem fully modernised for today's living
Exceptional room configuration ideal for family use or guest accommodation
Rare central village setting with immediate access to year-round activities
Large plot with potential for future value creation

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.
