The Chalet....

This recently renovated chalet has been given a complete makeover which included insulation, electric and plumbing. The work has been done to a very high standard with every detail professionally finished.
The chalet has 5 double bedrooms all with their own dedicated shower rooms and also a 2 bedroom apartment on the ground floor which can also be used as part of the larger chalet. The new look property has bespoke lighting and new windows and doors throughout.

The ground floor entrance takes us past the 2 bedroom apartment which has been configured such that either one or both of the bedrooms can be used with the rest of the building. There is a fitted kitchen and doors leading out to the south facing terrace. On this level we have the service room which houses the fuel heating system and laundry. There is a lower cellar for extra storage.
On the first floor is the main living area where the kitchen / dining and lounge area are part of one vast open plan room. The kitchen is modern and fully fitted. There is a new wood burning fire and double doors lead out to the spacious balcony that over looks the garden.
There are 2 bedrooms on this level and also a large sauna.
Upstairs are 3 further spacious bedrooms and a separate bathroom with tub.
The property comes with a double garage and the current owners also installed a heated drive to melt snow and ice when required. There is parking for 5 cars.

This property has great rental potential and offers itself as a superb holiday venue for large groups of up to 18 guests.

The Area.....

The chalet is located just on the periphery of Briancon town, just 1km from the Prorel telecabine and 2 1/2 kms from the Chantemerle lifts. It is just 100 m from the bus stop that runs clients up the valley and a further 50 m the main shopping centre that has a supermarket and pharmacy.
The position of the chalet and the fact that it has such a large garage would make this property perfect as a base for road cyclists who come to the area in droves from May through to October. This often over looked client base is as important, if not more lucrative than the already popular ski industry. Serre Chevalier is a ski resort that is on the move. 10 years ago, very few foreign skiers even heard of the area.
Nowadays, it is not only synonymous with cycling but also becoming a reputable ski station in itself. The nearest airport is Turin in Italy at 125 kms ( 1 and 1/2 hours drive ), and Oulx TGV is just 30 kms ( 45 minutes drive )
