House in Saint-Martin-de-Belleville , Savoie , French Alps

From the charming rural side street you enter into the beautifully lit house and discover how cleverly the space has been used.

The ground floor comprises 2 bedrooms - one larger double room and one bunk room that really make the most of the space. Between these sits the stylish bathroom with all new fixtures and fittings.

Climbing the attractive wooden staircase to the middle floor brings you into the spacious, open-plan living level with modern kitchen, sitting area, breakfast bar and access out on to the property's balcony. This level also benefits from a fantastic modern fireplace.

The top floor houses the final bedroom under the eaves but with plenty of headroom throughout, bringing the capacity of the house up to 6 people.

Underneath the house there is a really useful cellar area with electricity and water points, making it the perfect spot for washing machines and driers but also potentially ski boot driers, storage of equipment (skis, bikes, climbing gear etc) and even spa facilities.

The village of Villarenger is an increasingly popular year-round spot for locals and holidaymakers alike with fantastic summer walks from the bottom of the village over the Roman bridge, and access up to Le Chatelard on touring skis available in the winter.
