For nature lovers, the property offers hiking trails from the front door, as well as the possibility to walk to Verchaix and Lac Bleu along the river. The property also boasts delightful 180° views and is south-facing, ensuring year-round sun.

The first and second floors of the property have undergone an impressive renovation, with period features retained wherever possible. The exterior has also been beautifully updated with high-spec bardage. The ground floor is currently in very good condition but offers the possibility to update it to your personal taste should you so wish.

The ground floor features a sitting room/kitchen/dining area with a fireplace, bedroom, large lounge (which could be another bedroom – indeed it was previously two bedrooms), shower room/WC, utility room and cupboard.

The first floor has an open-plan living area with a wood-burning stove, sunken dining area, south-facing balcony, fully equipped hand-built kitchen with a stunning slate floor, double bedroom and a separate shower room/WC.

The second floor has two large double bedrooms, a spacious hallway, and a bathroom with a separate shower and two washbasins. There are also multiple storage cupboards under the eves.

The property is equipped with a modern heating system, including a heat-pump which runs the underfloor heating on the first floor and provides the hot water. On the ground floor, there is a mix of modern oil-filled electric radiators and convection radiators. The second floor is heated by convection radiators. There are supplementary heated towel rails in the bathrooms.

During the renovation in 2013/4, the external walls of the building were rebuilt with the latest insulation and vapour barriers. Additionally, recycled old bardage was added to create a stunning finish. Internally, a new wooden 2nd floor was added. Wherever possible, original beams were kept to maintain the character of the building.

The private, enclosed garden is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the stunning surroundings. The property also has a convenient cellar (18.5 sq m) for storage and a large parking area.

The delightful 18th century mazot offers the option to convert it to habitable space, and there is even the possibility to add a carport where the vegetable garden is currently located.

One of the most exciting aspects of this property is its potential for further development. The land is constructible, meaning it may be possible to build a small chalet where the mazot is currently located. This could open up a range of possibilities for the property, including creating additional living space or generating rental income.
