This Exquisite Chalet For Sale In Villarabout

THE PROPERTY

An exquisite Chalet for sale in Villarabout

One of the finest Chalets we have offered for sale in recent years, this Chalet is a dream realised in meticulous detail and faultless execution by the present owners.

Completed in 2017, the Chalet was conceived with a very strong design ethos. It had to look like an old village Grange that had been renovated, have double height vaulted ceilings, be sympathetic to the village, incorporate reclaimed local stone and old wood, a local slate roof and a south and west facing garden.

The result is a beautiful, light, contemporary Chalet wrapped perfectly in an old authentically Alpine skin, with all the benefits of cutting edge design, materials and technology.

The centrepiece of the Chalet is the full height living area showcasing the 180 degree mountain and village views. Zoned to provide kitchen, dining and seating areas, with a central, suspended fireplace as a perfect focal point. A large mezzanine provides an open plan office, music or TV room. This area would also be perfect as a fourth/occasional bedroom.

A particular feature of this floor is the large wrap around balcony with a covered seating area perfect for an apero overlooking the mountains.

The three ensuite double bedrooms are all generous sizes with the master bedroom having a Bette freestanding bath. All have either balconies or terraces.

Additionally the Chalet has two guest WC’s, one on each floor. a second kitchen/utility, a sauna and large garage with adjacent technical room. Occupying the whole footprint of the Chalet is a very practical storage area (lower headroom).

Outside the thoughtful design continues, with the Chalet sitting well within beautifully curated gardens with sitting areas, well screened, sunny and private. An outside bar area is perfect for four season entertaining. The trees that give the Chalet its name are planted amongst others, creating shade in the summer and structure in the winter.

A cobbled drive gives access and parking.

The Location
At an altitude of 1450 metres Saint Martin de Belleville is not a purpose built ski resort. It is the chef lieu (chief town) of the Belleville Valley.
Many years ago the Mairie decided that it wanted St Martin to remain a traditional mountain village, and retain its thriving village community all year round. Recent Investment has seen a modern 8 person telecabine linking to a fast 6 person chair – St Martin 1 & 2, taking you into the heart of the 3 Valleys in under 20 minutes. St Martin is an integral part of the three valleys ski area, but it is still an authentic French mountain village. It has everything you need in a ski resort – a selection of good ski & board hire shops, ski school, excellent child minding / creche facilities, and a choice of great apres-ski bars and restaurants. There is also a supermarket, boulangerie / patisserie, butcher, bank, chemist, post office, and newsagent / tabac. All the amenities of a modern ski resort with the added benefit of the charm of a village where the locals live and work all year round.

The property is located in the sought after village of Villarabout, linked by ski bus to St Martin de Belleville and just 800m away, making its Restaurants and Bars and easily walkable to.
