Description
A48022LUB73 - The Property
A rare opportunity to purchase a piece of Alpine history and restore it to its former glory. This traditional farm chalet was built in 1812 and has remained in the same family for more than 200 years. It is now ready for a new chapter and offers exceptional potential for renovation and development.
The property is located in a peaceful mountain hamlet in the commune of Queige, surrounded by beautiful Alpine scenery, yet is remarkably accessible, being just 10 minutes by car from Albertville and its extensive range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, schools and everyday services.
Set on a generous 1,228 m² plot, the property enjoys mountain views in all directions. There is currently approximately 90 m² of habitable accommodation requiring extensive modernisation, together with more than 200 m² of additional space within the former stable, barn and hayloft.
The existing accommodation currently comprises:
• A large kitchen of more than 20 m² with traditional chimney, historically used to heat the living areas.
• A spacious living room of approximately 30 m².
• A shower room with WC on the ground floor.
• Three separate bedrooms on the first floor, accessed via an external staircase and balcony.
• A 13 m² cellar beneath the living area.
• An additional vaulted cellar of approximately 10 m² on the ground floor.
The traditional character of the building remains evident, with the original agricultural spaces offering significant additional potential.
At the rear of the property, on the lower ground floor, is a huge former stable of more than 70 m². Above this is a large barn of over 90 m², with direct access from the road via the barn doors at the rear of the property. Above the barn is a substantial hayloft extending across the top of the whole building.
Subject to planning permission and other necessary authorisations, these generous volumes offer numerous possibilities. The property could potentially be transformed into a substantial family home, luxury mountain retreat, gîte or bed and breakfast project, or potentially divided into several separate apartments for private use or rental. The final configuration would, of course, be subject to the relevant planning and building regulations.
Outside
The property occupies a generous 1,228 m² plot, with a large lawned area providing plenty of space for outdoor living and the potential to create parking for several vehicles.
There is also excellent potential to create sunny terraces from which to enjoy the impressive surrounding mountain scenery. The combination of the elevated setting, mountain views and peaceful surroundings gives the property real appeal for those looking to embrace an outdoor Alpine lifestyle.
The Location
The property enjoys a particularly attractive balance between peaceful mountain living and easy access to amenities.
Queige village centre is less than 10 minutes away by car, while Albertville is approximately 10 minutes away and provides a wide range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, schools and other services.
For outdoor enthusiasts, the surrounding area offers an abundance of activities throughout the year, including hiking, cycling, mountain biking, swimming and numerous other mountain pursuits. Lake Annecy can be reached in just over 30 minutes by car, with many other lakes, valleys and Alpine destinations also within easy reach.
Winter sports enthusiasts are particularly well placed, with the popular ski resorts of Arêches-Beaufort, Crest-Voland and Les Saisies all accessible in under 30 minutes. Numerous other renowned Alpine ski areas, including the Three Valleys, can be reached in under an hour.
Chambéry Airport is less than an hour away by car, while both Lyon and Geneva international airports are approximately 90 minutes away.
A Rare Renovation Opportunity
This is a property with genuine potential for those looking for a renovation project with character, space and an exceptional Alpine setting. The combination of the historic farm building, substantial additional volumes, generous plot, panoramic mountain views and excellent accessibility offers the opportunity to create something truly special.
Whether your ambition is to create a beautiful family home, a private mountain retreat, a holiday property or a tourism/rental project, this traditional farm chalet provides an exciting blank canvas in a highly desirable part of the French Alps.
