Description
Chalet les Myrtilliers is a beautifully presented property, situated on a quiet cul-de-sac in the village of St Jean d’Aulps. The property has quality fixtures and fittings and is in excellent condition throughout. It is an ideal family holiday home – built in 2006, it is low maintenance, lock-up-and-leave chalet, close to the ski slopes and to the village amenities.
The property is spread over three levels, and offers spacious and well laid-out accommodation.
On the ground floor, the garage has been converted to a games room/workshop, perfect for the kids on a rainy day or for tinkering with your skis or bikes. There is a boot room with plenty of storage for ski gear, boots and equipment. The garage leads through to the main chalet, via a front door and into a vestibule. On the ground floor, there is a double bedroom, a bathroom, and a walk-in cupboard with laundry facilities.
Upstairs, the middle floor is open plan, and is lovely and is both airy and cosy. The well-equipped and stylish kitchen has a double-height ceiling, giving a real feeling of space. The large balcony leading off the kitchen has beautiful views across the valley and space for a dining table and 8 chairs. The dining area and lounge with wood burning stove is cosy but light and spacious. Completing the middle floor is a double bedroom with direct access to the garden, and a handy guest cloakroom. To the rear of the property, accessed from the lounge area and bedroom, there is a small landscaped south-facing garden with large deck.
On the top floor, there is a galleried landing overlooking the floor below. Off the landing is the very spacious master bedroom with balcony and en-suite shower-room. There is a second large double bedroom, currently set up to sleep 4-5 kids, and a separate family bathroom.
The chalet is located between the ski station and the village of St Jean d’Aulps. It is within walking distance of both, but although the ski lifts are under 500m away on foot it is along a footpath and in ski boots may be a challenge! Fortunately, the chalet is also on the ski bus route, about 100m from the nearest stop. The resort also provides a handful of bars, restaurants and shops, and a free shuttle bus that operates to the village centre and back in the winter. The village of St Jean d’Aulps has a couple of restaurants and lively bars, a local supermarket, a boulangerie, a pharmacy, a post office and a doctors surgery.
Access to the international ski resort of Morzine-Avoriaz is approximately 10 minutes away by car, and Geneva airport is under 90 minutes away.
