Chalet Grizou is a very generously proportioned chalet, situated on a substantial plot, within immediate walking distance of the centre of St Jean d’Aulps village. The chalet was constructed in the late 1960s, and is ripe for modernisation to a contemporary family chalet.
The chalet is situated almost in the centre of the village, with all the local amenities within easy reach by foot. It is perched on an elevated plot of around 1400m2, with great views taking in the village, valley and surrounding mountains. The plot is south-west facing and very sunny, with ample private parking, and an attractive variety of shrubs and trees, as well as plenty of scope for additional terraces and landscaping, or why not a hot tub or outdoor sauna? The land is also wholly constructible, meaning the construction of a separate additional property or the resale of some of the land as a building plot would also be possible.
The property is constructed on three floors, with an internal stairwell linking the three floors. The main entrance is on the middle floor, and comprises an entrance hall, a large kitchen, and a living room with fireplace, sunny views, and direct access to a large, covered south-facing balcony which also wraps around the front of the chalet. Completing this floor is a double bedroom, a bathroom, and a separate Wc. There is also an integral garage with internal access from the entrance hall.
Upstairs on the top floor, a landing from the stairwell leads through to four double bedrooms, a dressing room/walk-in attic space, and a bathroom with separate Wc. Two of the bedrooms enjoy access to a south-facing balcony with views.
On the ground floor, there is a self-contained one bedroom apartment, which can be reached either via the internal stairwell and external porch, or by its own private outdoor access. The apartment comprises an entrance hall, an open-plan kitchen and living room, a double bedroom, a bathroom and a Wc. This apartment could be kept as a separate dwelling for holiday rentals or visiting friends and family, or alternatively could be re-incorporated into the main house. Completing the ground floor is a boiler room and a large cellar.
Outside, the garden allows plenty of space around the property to enjoy the views and sunshine. The total land area is around 1400m2, and is in a constructible zone, giving potential for further development. There is plenty of off-street parking, and there is also a separate cellar, ideal for storing the barbecue, garden furniture or the lawn mower etc.
The property is within easy walking distance of the village centre, under 5 minutes’ walk away, offering a selection of shops, bars and restaurants as well as a cashpoint, medical centre and post office. The ski bus stop is also nearby, giving quick access to the Roc d’Enfer skiing domain, or bus into Morzine for access to the wider Portes du Soleil. For those looking to make the property a primary residence, the school is also within easy walking distance. Morzine is around 10 minutes’ drive away, and Geneva airport less than 90 minutes.
The chalet is in very good structural condition, and is ready and waiting for a new family to come along and give this property a new lease of life and fulfil its fabulous potential! Don’t hesitate to for more information, or to organise a viewing!
