Rhone Alps, Isère, Vaujany, France

We enter on the ground floor of the chalet where we find a spacious vaulted and well-appointed sitting room with a banquet sized dining table with enough space for all of the guests to dine at the same time. The vaulted ceilings have been carefully restored to their original splendour with the main feature being the “tulip” or central support in the middle of the room.

The sitting area has a lovely renaissance style open fireplace in the centre of the vault, adding to the warm and inviting atmosphere of this grand living space. In warmer weather doors open from each of the south facing arches onto the garden and terrace to the front of the chalet.

The ground floor level also comprises a vaulted and fully equipped galley style professional kitchen, an office space/meeting room, reception area, cellar and a WC. A beautifully finished and fully equipped room for persons of reduced mobility is also provided on the ground floor level.

Moving to the first floor we arrive on a central landing from which we access another 4 bedrooms, each with ensuite facilities. The largest double family room also has its own entrance hallway with a separate bathroom with Victorian bath. The rooms to the front of the building have their own balcony with south-facing views across the gardens to lake Verney at the bottom of the valley. Also on this level, we find a second entrance to the property. This opens onto a small patio from where we enter another bedroom with ensuite bathroom and its unusual ‘tree-house’ single bed platform. This room also boasts a south facing balcony.

From the landing area we move up to the second floor of the chalet where we find two fully equipped, 3-bedroom, duplex apartments with south facing balconies. Each has its own lounge and kitchenette, with a bathroom and a bedroom located on the mezzanine floor.

To the exterior of the property we have a beautiful garden with wellness area offering a sauna and jacuzzi, 8 private parking spaces and a spacious garage/workshop.
