Vallorcine, France

Chalet Biolles is a beautiful 3 bedroom traditional chalet situated in the calm village of Vallorcine, just a short drive from Argentiere and Chamonix. With accommodation on three levels, the chalet is situated in a stunning garden with a stream running alongside.

The ground floor comprises an entrance hallway leading to an open planned lounge, dining area with a well-equipped American kitchen. The lounge has double doors that give access to the beautiful, south-west facing garden. There is one good-sized bedroom and a family bathroom on this level. The first floor provides three bedrooms and one large bathroom and plenty of 'under-the-eves' storage space. Much of the basement has been left with a concrete finish giving a buyer an option to add value (45m²) and the remainder of the basement comprises a laundry room and a boiler room.

There is a separate double garage situated on the north of the chalet.

Our opinion
The situation is excellent - it's secluded, sunny (south-west facing) and has some lovely natural features (a climbing boulder and a river in the garden). The construction has been carried out with plenty of thought and care to use the best materials to enhance the traditional chalet features. Although the position is quiet and secluded, you have quick access to the modern Vallorcine lift which takes you up to the Col de Balme/Le Tour ski area.

Chalet Biolles is located in the hamlet of Le Nant in Vallorcine, the last hamlet in the Chamonix Valley. With fantastic summer walks nearby, the chalet is also close to the Tête de Balme ski lift to Le Tour.

It is just a short drive to Argentiere (5-7 minutes' drive) and the Swiss border (5 minutes' drive).
