Les Houches, France

NEW TO THE MARKET
Chalet Maria is a very attractive 3 bedroom chalet in the les Granges area of les Houches. It has been entirely renovated to a high standard including a new roof, external cladding, plumbing, electrics and underfloor heating system. As part of the sale, the present owners will also install a double car port to the left of the chalet.

On the ground floor, the chalet comprises an open plan living and dining area with wood burner, opening onto a large terrace via 2 sets of French doors. Adjacent is the open kitchen, fully fitted and equipped with Italian integrated units. The entrance hallway leads onto the large utility room with plenty of storage for equipment.

A designer suspended staircase leads up to the first floor and onto a good sized landing with balcony. There is a master bedroom with ensuite shower/WC and balcony, a 2nd bedroom with balcony, 3rd bedroom (currently used as a study) and a main family bathroom with bath, shower and WC.

There is, in addition, a cellar reached via a trap door in the utility room for additional storage.

The chalet sits on a level plot of 750m², providing it with a pleasant, useable garden and good sized terrace with impressive views of the mountains to the south.

Our opinion
This is a very stylish renovation which has created a lovely, family sized home. It has been finished to a high quality using many Italian sourced materials and finishes. Quiet and private in an increasingly exclusive area of quality chalets.

Chalet Maria is located in the Les Granges area of Les Houches, a quiet, mainly residential area within easy reach of the main supermarket in the Valley. The chalet is in a very pleasant setting amongst other lovely chalets, higher up the Valley side giving it open views and much later sunshine.

The centre of les Houches itself is just over 2 km from the chalet. There is easy access to Chamonix (7 km) and down the Valley towards Geneva via the Autoroute Blanche (1.5 km away). The nearest skiing is at les Houches, Bellevue (5 minute drive, 3 km).
