Property Description

Detached Chalet Near Argentière with Plenty of Development Potential, Nestled on a Superb Plot of Land only Minutes from the Slopes.

Chalet Rive presents a rare opportunity in the upper Chamonix valley, just 1km from the Tour/Vallorcine ski area. Nestled near the river bank on a large terrain of 1031m2 that's bustling with wildlife and nature in the spring and summer months, the property enjoys open south-facing views on to Mont Blanc.

A traditional style chalet built in the late 60’s, complete with its much older 12m2 wooden mazot in the garden, it represents the rustic and remote chocolate box idyll whilst still being within walking distance to the ski slopes, public transport and close to the amenities of Argentière. The interior to the property has not been revamped for sometime and would benefit from updating.

713m2 of the land is in a constructible zone with an ample potential to increase the current footprint. The rest of the plot is protected, thus ensuring that the view remains intact.

The chalet is spread over three levels and is currently divided in to two separate apartments, a one bedroom on the ground floor and a two bedroom on the first floor. It would be easy to open these up to create one living space again. It comprises thus: on the ground floor is an entrance hall accessing the two apartments, a hallway, separate kitchen and dining room, south-facing living room with an open fireplace and French doors opening on to the balcony, one double bedroom, newly decorated shower room and separate WC. On the first floor is an office or storage room, two double bedrooms, a communal bathroom with WC and an open-plan kitchen/diner/living area.
In the basement are three cellars and one boiler/laundry room, ripe for conversion in to additional living space. The south-west façade has existing windows in the basement.
