Standalone ski chalet for sale - just metres from the piste and chairlift (3 Valleys)

Perched at the top of the ski village called Le Bettex, this chalet offers a number of possibilities for a buyer: It is currently divided into 2 separate dwellings - a self-contained apartment and a 3-bedroom chalet-style property, so this layout could be maintained; the property could be consolidated into a single, large luxury chalet to maximise the habitable space; or the property could be developed - potentially in a variety of different ways. Whichever option is decided upon, the property benefits from excellent views and a feeling of separation, whilst remaining extremely close to the world's largest ski area!

Entering from the ground floor level, there is a shared entrance hall which then gives access to the 2 separate dwellings.

The self-contained apartment has a good-sized separate bedroom, bathroom and WC, plus the open plan living/kitchen/dining area. This is a great space for renting out either on a short-term (weekly) basis, or on a longer-term lease. This apartment is, in fact, rented out to a quiet, respectful returning seasonnaire with a full-time contract in Les Menuires for the 2025/26 winter season.

The chalet-style part of the property sits on the top 2 floors and houses 3 bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a double lounge/living room, dining area, 2 bathrooms and 3 WCs. This part of the property also benefits from the access out onto the secluded, south-facing terrace area with wraparound balcony, and the wooden garden area, which extends quite a way away from the chalet to the south.

From a development perspective, the chalet sits on a constructible plot of land of over 1000sqm in size. This means the existing chalet could be extended, or indeed the whole plot could be developed, potentially into 2 separate standalone chalets, for the more intrepid developer!

The property is sold with a ski locker and parking spaces below the chalet on the land that belongs to the property. The chairlift is around 150m from the door of the property and this drops you up above Les Menuires, which gives you direct access into the full 3 Valleys ski area. The blue run, also called Bettex, that comes down from Les Menuires usually remains open until the end of the ski season and there are incredible off-piste itineraries that finish in Le Bettex from the Masse ski area.

Le Bettex is a traditional mountain village through which the Doron river runs, having started its journey up in Val Thorens. Many locals reside here, but there are also numerous catered ski chalets and hotels and the southern end of the village has seen a lot of development over the past 5-10 years. Les Menuires is under 5km away by road (a 7-minute drive with no traffic and clear roads), and St Martin is 7km in the other direction with its array of restaurants.
