A 5 Bedroom House Nestled in the Heart of Samoens Village, with Local Amenities and the Ski Bus Close by.

Property Description

Chalet des Cimes is one of a handful of properties scattered around Samoens echoing a midcentury architecture favoured by the bourgeoisie of the era. This south facing property, nestled into its surroundings, is a 4 minute walk from Samoens’ medieval centre, less than 50m to the nearest ski bus stop and a 3 minute drive to the Grand Massif Express ski gondola in Samoens. A short distance from the riverside, Chalet des Cimes is easy accessible and within a sought after neighbourhood amongst the locals.

This property is set over 4 levels with an estimated habitable surface of 115 m2. Previously renovated some twelve years ago with the rental market very much in mind, works included recladding the roof, double glazing and the installation of extra ensuite bathrooms. The heating operates via a combination of electric radiators and a wet underfloor heating system. In 2015, a brand new garage (12,39m2) and an independent studio space (24.47m2) were constructed by artisans of the area. These useful additions, particularly the studio space, provide welcomed flexibility to this period property.

Entering the ground floor from the south, you are greeted into an entrance, off which there are two bedrooms (one is currently set up as a childrens’ playroom) each with ensuite showerooms (including WCs). One of these bedrooms could be easily be converted into a useful laundry/technical room. Downstairs, are two further bedrooms with one ensuite shower room.

Upstairs on the first floor is an open plan living area with a kitchen to the west. French doors open onto a south facing balcony that leads to a covered terrace area to the east. On the top floor is a fifth bedroom, currently set up as a second office with concealed storage under the eaves. This level has the makings for a fabulous master bedroom, under exposed beams with its own private south facing balcony and designated bathroom.

Moving outside, there is a easting facing covered terrace (which has two external cupboards) that looks onto a flat enclosed garden perfect for young children to play in. The garage and studio at the back, is located immediately south in an adjacent building. There is parking for two cars.

The studio, with its separate entrance, has an electrical and water feed from Chalet des Cimes. With a built in mezzanine, this studio offers a prospective buyer the opportunity to complete this space to suit their needs. It offers attractive versatility from a grown up child seeking independence, to a decent home office or artist’s studio or even a modest rental revenue or lodgings for a caretaker or local seasonal worker.
