9 bedroom Chalet For Sale: Les Carroz..

The chalet occupies a prime position within the village and its close proximity to the ski slopes and lifts, as well as the village amenities, make it an ideal destination for both Winter and Summer business. Although it has been used commercially for over 12 seasons, it also offers the other options of a large family home or division into apartments.

Solidly built in traditional French Alpine style, the chalet provides splendidly proportioned and appointed accommodation on its three floors.

On the ground floor, leading from the main entrance, there is a two bedroom family suite with private shower room and WC. There is also a separate bedroom with twin beds and bunk beds and an en suite shower room with WC. The large boot and ski room is also located on this floor, as are the Jacuzzi spa and sauna room, shower room and utility room containing the highly efficient nearly new oil-fired boiler, which was installed as recently as 2011.

The middle floor contains a large hall and the superb L shaped open plan living and dining room with beamed ceiling, open stone fireplace with wood burning fire, UK satellite TV/DVD, red leather suite and dining table and chairs for at least 20 people. The fully equipped American style kitchen area is located at one end.

Outside the lounge and dining areas is the large South facing balcony which will accommodate 14 guests dining al fresco against the wonderful backdrop of the Grand Massif mountain range.

Also on this floor are three further bedrooms, one with twin beds and en suite shower room with WC and two others, each having a double bed and bunk beds. Two further shower rooms with WCs complete the accommodation on this floor, whilst one bedroom also has the benefit of its own South facing balcony.

The top floor may be described as “the owner's apartment”, but it is equally suitable and valuable for additional commercial use. It has its own entrance door, leading into the lounge/dining room and kitchen, with a South facing balcony again providing dramatic mountain views. There are three bedrooms, a bathroom with shower and WC and plenty of storage space.

Outside the chalet is a private West facing garden, a drive with ample space for parking and a large double garage.

LES CARROZ D'ARACHES & SKI SLOPES

The increasingly popular village of Les Carroz d'Araches stands at a height of 1150 metres and forms a marvellous gateway into the Grand Massif ski region. This extends to over 270 kms of connected pistes, including those of Flaine, Samoens and Morillon.

The easily accessible ski slopes range from easy wide open ones to technical and challenging ones. The area is exhilarating with spectacular scenery over the Mont Blanc region. You can ski right into the village centre, stop for a drink in one of the apres-ski bars and walk back to the chalet or take the ski bus, which stops outside the chalet.

The village has a good choice of shops and restaurants, a heated outdoor pool, newly created for 2012, and an 18 hole golf course. Further afield is the Giffre gorge and river, where visitors can experience white water rafting, canyoning, kayaking and rock climbing. Also close by the village and enjoyed during the warmer months, there is hang gliding, parapenting and mountain biking down mountain trails. For those seeking rather less adventurous pastimes, there is the nearby lake and pool for bathing and swimming.

Les Carroz is also the only resort in the region to have its own hot air balloon and offer flights all year round, subject to weather conditions. There is plenty to do in the evenings, in addition to visiting the bars, restaurants and discos. Floodlit skiing, ice skating, night time snow-shoeing and driving a snowmobile are just some of the available activities.

Without doubt, Les Carroz is rapidly increasing in popularity and, with a number of projects in the pipeline, this is sure to continue. As a genuine year round resort catering for adults and children alike, a bright future for the village and surrounding area seems assured. The new owners of this exceptional property can look forward to making the most of the fine business opportunities which await them.
