Lovingly Restored Semi-Detached Farmhouse in Samoens.

Property Description

Ferme du Villard is a beautiful semi-detached farm located on the picturesque south facing hillside of Le Villard. Situated just under 3kms from the village, this sought after hamlet is within a short distance of the local amenities and ski lifts.

With a total suface area of 270m2 (186.7m2 habitable floor area), spread over 4 floors, this impressive restoration was once home to Samoëns’ local chaplain. The current owners, a local carpenter and his wife, have successfully created a vibrant contemporary space, with lofty open living areas and expansive south facing windows, whilst retaining its rustic integrity. Whilst this project is near completion some finishing work remains for a prospective, new owner to take on such as the exterior cladding of the building’s southern façade and the garage area on the ground floor.

The farm’s entrance, facing east, has ample in-built storage area for hanging coats and storing foot wear. Immediately left, is a stairwell to access the main living area on the first floor. Straight ahead, is a practical, internal access into the garage area. This spacious garage can easily fit one vehicle and has plenty of shelf space on the side. There is an independent WC (with wash basin) adjacent to the garage. An underground cave and an independent two bedroom apartment are also acces-sible from here.

The aforementioned apartment benefits from its own exterior entrance to the south. It consists of a kitchen/living area, a shower room with WC and 2 bedrooms, ideal for surplus guests or even pri-vate accommodation if seeking a rental opportunity. The current owners rent the main residence on the upper floors through the winter and use this cosy space as their private residence. The first floor is dedicated to a stunning, sociable open plan kitchen and dining area that flows into lumi-nous living space boasting dual aspect windows. Large sliding doors off the dining area welcome you onto an east facing inset balcony with outside seating perfect for soaking up the mountain scenery. Off the living area, is a guest WC with a double wash hand basin and practical storage area.

The second floor has three large bedrooms, each with their own wash basin, shower, bath or both. A shared WC and hand basin can also be found on this floor. The LED illuminated stairwell to the third floor has clever inbuilt storage and gives access to two further double bedrooms, a shower room and a WC.

Outside there is a small terrace to the south of the property and a modest garden area to the east with minimal maintenance to consider. There is space to comfortably park several vehicles to the south of the garden.
