House in Samoëns , Haute-Savoie , Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

A former fruitière, and located near Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval, this delightful 19th-century stone house has been fully renovated to a high standard and is in excellent condition throughout. It has superb views of the surrounding mountains, including a spectacular waterfall cascading from the towering cliff-face.

Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval is a magnificent village in the Haute-Savoie and well-known thanks to its architectural heritage, and especially thanks to its classified natural sites, such as the Cascade du Rouget waterfall, the Cirque du Fer-à-Cheval, the Gorges des Tines and the 12th century Abbey. Sixt’s ski area is linked to the Grand Massif via the superb Piste des Cascades, a 14 km-long blue slope.

The ground floor of the property includes an open plan living room with a wood-burning stove set within the original fireplace, a dining area and a modern fitted kitchen. On this level, there is a master bedroom with built-in cupboards and an ensuite shower room with WC, a twin bedroom, a larder, a shower room with WC and an office alcove.

On the first floor there is an open space that is currently used as a twin bedroom and office area, a large double bedroom and ample storage space under the eaves. Both rooms are brightly lit thanks to their velux windows.

The property also includes a large basement that serves as a workshop, laundry, storage area and technical room. Opposite the house, by the river, there is a large private parking area.

Other features:
• heat pump boiler • underfloor heating • good insulation • mains drains • small side garden and wood store.

From the house, the beginners ski slopes at Salvagny are just a few minutes drive. The pretty medieval village of Samoens is only 7 km away. From there, the whole of the Grand Massif ski area and its 265 km of pistes are accessible.

The ski area consists of Les Carroz, Samoëns, Morillon, Sixt Fer à Cheval and Flaine. With a top station of 2500 metres, mostly north-facing slopes and close proximity to Mt Blanc and the micro climate it generates, this is one of the Haute-Savoie’s most snow-sure ski resorts.

In the summer, beginner and advanced hikers can explore the footpaths through the biggest natural reserve in Haute-Savoie: Sixt-Passy Nature Reserve. The Giffre valley is just as popular in the summer with numerous activities and festivals all season long. Check out the Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval, Samoëns and Morillon tourist sites for more information.

Geneva is just 60 km away.
The property is easily linked by a bus service several times a day to Annemasse and onward via Leman train, bus or tram direct to Geneva, airport, city and beyond.
