Description

Appt. Flocon is one of 8 apartments in a small residence located in the Les Bossons area just outside the centre of Chamonix-Mont-Blanc. Situated on the first and second floors of the building it is spread over the two upper levels.

The property was sold as a shell in 2017, and the interior had a full refit including all wiring, plumbing and layout in 2018, giving it a light and contemporary feel to a high standard. The open-plan living area and 49m2 south-facing private terrace are a huge attraction, and the high ceilings with exposed wooden frameworks on the upper level combine alpine charm with modern design.

High end materials have been used throughout by the current owners, who designed the space as their primary residence. The staircase is a bespoke design from indigenous oak, and the floors are oak. The spaces are well thought out.

Heating is underfloor for consistent comfort with the addition of a wood burner for those cosy winter evenings.

**LAYOUT:**
**Level 1:** dual aspect (east and south) open-plan living, dining room and fully equipped kitchen with breakfast bar opening on to large south-facing terrace with Mont Blanc views.
**Level 2:** double height landing, bathroom with space for laundry area, two double bedrooms, one with mezzanine area for additional sleeping space or added storage.

Sold with the property is a generous covered parking area with storage plus two private outdoor parking spaces.

The nearest bus stop is a 2 minute walk away, and the cycle path into Chamonix is 2 minutes by bicycle. Geneva airport is an hour away. Easy access both up and down the valley to multiple ski areas.

Ideal as a lovely year-round home or holiday getaway, would work well as a rental due to the recent refurbishment, ample light and mountain views, and sunny private terrace.

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.
