Nicola ASHMORE's selection of French property for sale

About my area

I’m based in the heart of the Tarentaise valley. Surrounded by world class ski resorts and right on the border with Italy, Bourg St Maurice is an Alpine hub. Access to the area is unparalleled, just 2 hours from Geneva or Lyon airport and the terminus for the Eurostar, it couldn’t be easier to get here. The funicular links the town to Les Arcs and the Paradiski domain and the world class resorts of Tignes and Val d’Isère, La Rosière and Ste Foy Tarentaise are all within a half hour drive. Whether you’re looking for a year-round home in a bustling valley town, a chalet d’alpage tucked away in the hills, a modern ski apartment in resort or a cosy chalet in a traditional Alpine village, the Tarentaise valley has something for everyone! And it’s not only the winter that makes this place special; summer in the valley offers endless sunshine, trips over the border to Italy, daring mountain bike trails, stunning hikes and beautiful lakes for sunbathing, swimming or wakeboarding. Let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll be sure to find something just right for you!

About me

I came to Bourg St Maurice eight years ago, fresh from graduation and looking to make use of my French and Business degree whilst enjoying a dream lifestyle in the mountains. I was lucky enough to find a job managing property rental contracts for a British tour operator and to settle down here. I really enjoy being part of a vibrant community of like minded people and living in such a beautiful part of the world! I’ve had the opportunity to create a network of friends, local business owners and property owners in Bourg and the surrounding resorts and villages. Working with Leggett was such a natural and exciting switch. I look forward to meeting you and helping you find your ideal property out here in the Tarentaise valley!
