Morzine, Haute-Savoie, Rhone Alps, France

Just 2km from the centre of Morzine, situated in the Vallee de La Manche, one of Morzine's prettiest areas, known for its forest and mountain scenery, where chalets and farmhouses are nestled along the valley, next to the Dranse river. A calm and natural environment just a couple of minutes drive from the shops, bars and restaurants, with it's own access to the skiing at the Nyon ski lift.

A free bus service runs in summer and winter, often used by walkers to access the varied trails that climb up and around the mountains away from the lift system, and picking up skiers and snowboarders from a well known off piste itinerary that descends from Avoriaz. The mountains at the end of the valley are a well known destination for touring skiing.

Chalet Winterstoke sit in a very large plot of 1755 metres squared, elevated above the road, giving it beautiful open views and excellent natural light and sunshine.

An atypical design is fronted by a very high volume ceiling in the living room, and a characterful metal stairwell up to a mezzanine above. A modern open kitchen overlooks the living and dining area. The rusted metal theme is continued in the distinct design of the fireplace. A large balcony runs the full length of the southwest facing facade.

A large master bedroom occupies the rear of the upper floor, with access to to a roofed balcony and an ensuite bathroom with shower, bath, WC and sink, lit from above with a large roof light window.

There are two further bedrooms on the main floor, one with an adjacent shower and toilet, whilst the other has an ensuite shower and toilet.

The chalet can be accessed vis steps to the main floor or on the ground floor into a large hallway, with a ski and boot room, and storage cupboards. A guest bedroom fronted with a large window and an ensuite shower room sits at the front of the level.

The chalet has two large rooms to the rear of the ground floor, one equipped with a Murphy bed to sleep extra guests if needed and another that can be used as a gym or cinema room.

A covered parking area sits at street level, with space for two cars.

This area of the valley has always been vey popular with families looking to buy and rent in a calm and natural alpine environment with all the convenience of been close to Morzine's excellent restaurants, shops, services and access to the lift system.
