House in Saint-Pierre-de-Belleville , Savoie , Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes

With historic interest, this property remains a prominent feature within the village. Its roots as the main office for the local industry have been continued by the current owner who has preserved a work shop area on the ground floor. The high ceilings (3m20) will in the future serve either for continued use as a work shop or with an easy conversion will transform to a stunning open kitchen, with views a cross the meadows and a huge log fire which already heats the heavily insulated property.
Within the current renovation, works have been executed to allow for different usage options in the future. Either currently as it is, or divided into two separate units with a top floor self contained apartment, and on the two lower levels a large and open 3 bedroom house. Its distribution also would make it a perfect business opportunity to be run as a luxury gite or chambre d'hote.
The use of high quality materials is evident throughout the property, from wood joinery to plumbing finishes. Large showers, a roll top bath... even Japanese toilettes add to the comfort and elegance.
Energy efficiency was a crucial focus to the current owner. The large 19kw log fire on the ground floor and 2nd floor feature log fire provide the majority of the heating needed for the property. With significant modern insultation techniques in the walls, roof and windows, the house is easy to maintain at a comfortable temperature. Additional electric radiators are on standby if needed along with heated floor in the bathrooms. Hot water is provided by two electric balons with plenty of capacity for a property of this size.
The 2nd floor living area features an open modern American style kitchen for entertaining, complemented by the outside social area on the raised balcony (50m2).
Not only is the carpentry finished with detail, but this is also complemented with fittings, handles, lighting that characterise its location in this alpine valley village.
The staircase linking the floors is a traditional oak staircase with its preserved cast central hand rail. Final renovation works to this staircase are being completed in September. Within the stairwell large storage cupboards have been cleverly incorporated, some with electric and plumbing. Clever storage is a common feature throughout the property with plenty of provision for modern living. Additionally the property features a small exterior lift system that has been adapted simply to move firewood, shopping etc from the parking area up to the top floor.
The vast garden has been maintained in a simple fashion, with large open grassed areas and tall for trees to one corner providing shade. A garden shed provides shelter for garden equipment and machinery with a separate log store to the side of the house.
The property is serviced by a private fosse septic which will need some adaption to bring to local requirements.
Off road parking is secured within the grounds and secured by the electric gates.
Just 5 Minutes from the main Maurienne autoroute and train station this property is very accessible and in turn has great access to a number of major ski resorts including the Sybelles ski area, Valloire and Val Thorens to name but a few.
Chambery airport is just 35 minutes away and Geneva/Lyon airports 1hr20 away.
Everything you need from schooling to village shops, petrol station and eve larger superstores are within 10 minutes from the house.
For an extra feature, you are only 35 minutes from the Italian border and 3 hrs from the Italian coast.
This is a wonderful property that has been very well looked after and in the future will serve, and adapt easily, to a number of different uses with very little effort.
