A40493FNC73 - LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! This one bedroom apartment has a sought-after location in the heart of Plagne Centre. It looks out on the piste down to the Bergerie chairlift and is ski-in, ski-out but, with its view of Mont Blanc, it's on the side of the residence which doesn't get the noise from the bars and restaurants.

Cosy and practical? Yes, it's possible.
The double bedroom is a cosy, comfortable room with private lockers under the bed (ingenious) should you want to rent the apartment out but keep your skis locked away. It doesn't have a window but that should not put you off, it's got the feel of a cabin but in a ski home from home.
The owners have fitted incredibly modern pull down bunks (ask for a video) just next to the bedroom which can both be pulled down or just one and are extremely comfortable (no rickety wooden beds here). This sleeping accommodation can be closed off from the the rest of the apartment with a door so if you're having an early night or the children are ready for bed, you can still enjoy the living room without being disturbed.

Space to relax in.
The lounge-kitchen-diner is approximately 17m² and the kitchen is a great size for an apartment such as this; no need to squeeze past to get to the lounge, no little corner to try and cater for hungry skiers in. It's bright, modern and has all the amenities you need; combination oven, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and hob. The striking dining table comes with two chairs and two benches to make the most of the dining area and the benches tuck away to create space when you need it.
The sofa can sleep two people which makes this a 6 person apartment but the lounge area could take another sofa if you wanted to create more seating.

The highest mountain in Europe
Mont Blanc can be seen from the balcony, it's a stunning view and one that many properties in La Plagne don't have. The 7m² balcony looks over to the Mont Saint Jacques and beyond the Mont Blanc itself. If you have little skiers in the Oxygene ski school, you can "spy" on them from the balcony whilst having a morning coffee.
Come New Year's Eve, no need to walk to the fireworks on the Dou du Praz, the view from the apartment means you can sit back with your champagne and see in the New Year without having to stand in the cold.

Lock up and leave
There's huge rental potential for this apartment. It has a ski locker on the ground floor and guests will love the accessibility to the bars and restaurants through the covered gallery as well as being able to step out onto the snow without long walks with heavy ski gear.

La Plagne, part of the vast Paradiski ski area with Les Arcs, has 225km of pistes and 425km with Les Arcs included. There is skiing for every level; cruisey blues, challenging reds, top class blacks and also accessible off piste for the adventurous. High altitude glacier skiing makes this a snow sure resort and the Vanoise Express takes you across to Les Arcs in a matter of minutes to expand the pistes you can try (!) and ski each visit.
Plagne Centre provides a wonderful mix of accessible skiing for everyone, great après-ski at the end of the day and a range of activities for non-skiers (walking, snow shoeing, zip wires and skating to name but a few).
Getting to the resort couldn't be easier; regular trains stop at Aime La Plagne in the valley and Geneva and Lyon airport are a 2.5-3 hours away (depending on the time of year).
La Plagne ALL the way for the best in high altitude skiing!
