The two other bedrooms (west-facing) and shower room are on the floor below. There is also a small office. The garage and parking space are on the east side of the house. A laundry room and storage room complete this floor.

Only 10 minutes from the centre of Aime and its shops, restaurants and TGV station, the village of Tessens is on the sunny side of the Tarentaise with views of La Plagne and Les Arcs.
A peaceful setting but within an easy drive of the local schools and businesses this is an ideal location for a family looking to settle in the valley or for a beautiful holiday home in the mountains with access to world class skiing and stunning mountain walks.
The house is on four floors with 2 cellars underneath accessible from the outside. A small garage and outside parking space with an enormous amount of storage throughout the property means that everything has a place!

Ground floor
The garage is next to the main entrance which opens onto a hallway with built-in storage (a really positive point for any family with skis, ski boots, bikes etc) and off to a laundry room (more built-in storage) and the old boiler room.
A heat pump was installed in 2017 and the roof was insulated shortly after which gives this house a C energy rating in spite of it being an old village property. Incredibly low heating bills are a welcome sight in the mountains.
Two bedrooms share a shower room and toilet. There is a small office on this floor; it could be incorporated into making the shower room bigger or left as it is for home working with a view to the west.
Next to the garage is a small garden terrace, large enough for a small bistro table and pots to grow those summer veg.

First floor
The third bedroom is on this floor and the large shower room with WC and double washbasin is right next door.
Along the corridor is the kitchen. A mixture of Alpine charm and fitted cupboards, it leads out onto the large terrace; perfect for outdoor dining or just taking in the breath-taking views.
At the end of the corridor is the lounge-dining room which runs from East to West. There is a door to the terrace as well as windows facing west to look further down the Tarentaise valley. The centre piece is a large log fire; perfect for cosy winter evenings when the snow is falling outside.

Second floor
Under the roof is an exceptional space; partially under the eaves but with large velux windows it's airy and comfortable. Pop your head out of the windows for two of the most fabulous views in the area! Off this room is a small room with one velux; currently used as a fitness space and music room but perfect for extra guests in the house.

Lower ground floor
There is a vast workshop which leads into a cellar space and another room with east and west facing windows. This area has the potential to become a separate apartment as it has its own door to the village path outside (not a road). It has power and plumbing and could be renovated to provide a lovely living area and bedrooms.
There is a narrow strip of land outside this floor which the current owners have decorated in the summer with pot plants and is wide enough to have a small table and chairs.

Cellar
Below this ground floor are two cellars; one is home to the family chickens in the winter and the other is used for storage. One thing this property does not lack.

Overall, you will be charmed by the village of Tessens, the location, fabulous views and the unique character of this property. A family home, a holiday home or even the possibility to run a gîte business......it ticks all the boxes.
