This impressive property, built in 2007 offers generous volumes and a thoughtful layout designed for comfortable family living with additional accommodation options depending on the buyer's intended use.
The property provides approximately 546 m2 of total space (386 m2 habitable), set across three levels on a flat and well-maintained plot of 1,617 m2. The main residence, extending to around 280 m2, centres around a spacious and light-filled open-plan living area of approximately 95 m2, including a living room with cathedral ceiling, a sitting area with feature ceramic stove, a dining area and a fully equipped kitchen.
This space opens directly onto a 90 m2 terrace and the surrounding garden, creating a natural flow between indoor and outdoor living.
The upper level provides additional reception or office space along with several generously sized bedrooms, each with storage and en-suite facilities, including a principal suite with Jacuzzi bathroom.
At garden level, two independent apartments (approximately 68 m2 and 28 m2) provide further flexibility, whether for hosting family and guests or for accommodating short or longer term stays. This configuration allows for multiple usage options, from a large private residence to a home with additional guest accommodation, depending on the buyer's plans.
The overall layout, number of bedrooms and en-suite facilities, and separation between living areas, make the property particularly well suited to buyers seeking a flexible property with capacity for seasonal or guest use, depending on their project, while still retaining a clear and comfortable private living space.
The chalet stands out for the quality of its construction and its efficient multi-source heating system combining underfloor heating, wood, solar and gas solutions, contributing to both comfort and energy performance throughout the year.
The location offers a balance between accessibility and tranquillity, a short distance from Saint-Jean-de-Sixt, Le Grand-Bornand, La Clusaz and Thones, approximately 25 minutes from Lake Annecy and around one hour from Geneva, providing year-round appeal for both owners and guests.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial alpine property offering space, flexibility and strong lifestyle appeal in one of the most desirable areas of the French Alps.

Buying a Property in France
1. Signing the Agreement (Compris)
On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner.
The next step, once you are in agreement, is to sign the preliminary contract (Compromis de Vente). This is a legal document and after ten days will be binding on both parties. Rules change frequently in France and it is best to consult with your notary about when this period starts. Generally the compris will be signed in France with the Agent.
Variants can be included in the compris, for example an Acte (clause) can be added if the name or names to go on the title deed have not been finalised. If a mortgage will be required to purchase the property, the details for this, including the name of the mortgage company, must be on the compris.
2. Paying the Deposit
Generally the deposit will be 10% of the agreed purchase price. This will normally be paid to the notaire. There are exceptions to this, if the agent holds a carte professionelle, is bonded and fully registered then you may pay them, but do not hand over the deposit to anyone else. If for some reason the purchase does not go through, for example, if you write to the notaire and the agent that you do not wish to go continue with the purchase before the contract is binding (within seven days of signing the compris), then your deposit would be repaid. This would also apply if a condition had not been met, or the mayor or S.A.F.E.R. (a government agency that has the right of first purchase on most rural property that comes onto the market in France) could oblige the purchaser to give way. If you decide after the seven days 'cooling off' period that you do not wish to complete the purchase and pull out of the sale you would lose your deposit. If however the vendor pulls out of the sale then you will receive your deposit back plus the same amount from the vendor.
3. On Completion
Generally it will take around two or three months to complete the purchase.
During this time the balance of the purchase money must be paid into the account of the notaire, this must be done well ahead of the completion date. The notaire will prepare the documents, check that the deed of sale (Acte de Vente) is in order and have the legal title ready to be signed over. It is possible to have someone sign on your behalf if you give them power of attorney. An interpreter may be of use at this point if your French is not very good and many Notaires will suggest (or insist) that an interpreter is with you.
