Detached Chalet with 4 Bedrooms, Double Garage, Magnificent Views, Close to the Centre of Chamonix

Property Description

Chalet Elizabeth is a detached south-facing property offering breath-taking views of the Mont Blanc massif and the Bossons glacier. Superbly located right on the cycle track and hiking trail that follows the river Arve, you can be at the Gaillands lake and climbing area within minutes, as well as the local shops and the centre of Chamonix. Train and bus stops are a few minutes walk away, as well as cafés and a lovely Savoyard restaurant. The chalet faces due south on an access track used only by two properties, making for a peaceful setting.

The building itself is a traditional stone structure at the base with a wooden frame to the upper level. Full renovations have taken place over the last years - A gas condensing boiler was installed in 2006, providing central heating and hot water, this is topped up by solar panels. There is also a wood burning insert dating from 2019, when the chimney was entirely re-tubed. The roof was redone in 2020 and the windows are double-glazed.

In addition to the existing surface area of 94,4m2, there is a double garage of 24,42m2 plus a potential mezzanine area of 51m2, currently an attic. The current owner has drawn up architect plans for a fabulous conversion of this additional space, plus a reconfiguration of the existing habitable space, transforming the property into a contemporary and spacious chalet of 131m2 plus garage, cathedral ceiling, south-facing terrace with jacuzzi.
