Description

Chalet Merlette enjoys an exceptionally rare location: just 50 m from the Les Carroz d'Arâches télécabine, it offers immediate access to the pistes of the Grand Massif ski area, as well as to the village centre and its amenities, just 500 m away.

Built in the 1980s, its exposed stonework and log balustrade give it a character reminiscent of the great timber cabins of the Canadian north. Since its construction, the chalet has benefited from a full, high-quality renovation of the first floor and part of the ground floor, carried out in 2013 by a local contractor in collaboration with an architect, creating a modern and welcoming interior in an authentic mountain spirit.

The chalet is arranged over three levels with a total area of 200 m² (139 m² habitable floor area, 45 m² utility space, and a 15 m² garage), and offers generous sleeping accommodation for family and guests.

On the ground floor, a large entrance hall leads to a bedroom with en-suite shower room and WC (ideal as an au pair suite), a garage housing the laundry, ski lockers and boiler room. As the chalet has a separate carport, the garage could easily be converted into additional living space, such as a spa or wellness area.

The first floor features a modern, fully fitted kitchen, a bright living and dining room with an attractive insert fireplace, and direct access to the covered terrace and the beautiful garden.

On this floor, the sleeping accommodation comprises three well-proportioned bedrooms with wardrobes and a bathroom with WC.

On the top floor there is a mezzanine used as a small sitting room and study, three further bedrooms, and a shower room with WC.

The chalet sits on a generous, flat and attractively planted plot - a feature much sought-after in the resort. Views extend over the majestic Aravis mountain range.

This property offers considerable potential: for extension, allowing the property to grow with your future plans, and for rental income, given its sleeping capacity and outstanding location.

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.
