Overview:
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a new, luxury chalet in one of the most-sought after areas of the French Alps. Building works have already begun on the property, located close to the centre of Saint Martin de Belleville in the Three Valleys ski domain. Saint Martin de Belleville is a picture-perfect alpine village of stone and wood chalets - the property is being built in traditional style by a well-known local company which has an outstanding reputation for quality (see photos for examples of interior finish). The chalet offers living space of c.110m2 over two floors and can be configured as a 3 or 4 bedroom chalet - please contact us for more details on the 4-bed design. It is sold with a private garage and storage cellar and there is also a large 55m2, three-room basement level where it would be possible to create a games room, home cinema or spa. The facilities and finish of the property will be of the highest quality; there will be a chimney in the open-plan living room, solid-wood or tiled floors throughout, a modern, fully equipped kitchen and ensuite bathrooms in all the bedrooms. At this early stage in the development it is still possible to re-design the interior layout according to personal requirements, however as works progress this will become more difficult therefore an early viewing is recommended. Delivery is scheduled for 2010.

Entrance floor layout:
Large open-plan living room / dining room / kitchen with feature chimney and doors onto two balconies and a spacious dining terrace (27m2); cloakroom with WC and basin. Staircase down to garden floor.

Garden floor layout:
Master bedroom with private terrace (25m2) and en-suite bathroom (WC, basin, bath/shower). Two further double bedrooms, one with en-suite bathroom (WC, basin, bath/shower) and one with en-suite shower room (WC, basin, shower). Staircase down to basement level.

Basement layout:
Total space 55m2 spread across three rooms with min. 2.3m ceiling height.

Outside:
The chalet faces west - the various balconies and terraces face north, west and south. The chalet is built on a plot of approximately 900m2 which is shared with 2 other chalets (also under construction by the same developer and already reserved); the maintenance of these grounds will be managed. A separate garage block is being created with private garage (c.18m2) and storage cellar (12m2).

Setting:
The chalet is being constructed in an elevated position just above the village of Saint Martin de Belleville and will have panoramic views of the mountains and valley. The ski slopes are approximately 400m away.

Heating and hot water provision will be electric and individually controlled; heating in all rooms will be underfloor and controlled by a thermostat (additional radiators and working open fireplace in the lounge / dining room). Fixtures and fittings can be determined by purchaser - there is a wide range of kitchens, bathrooms, floor and wall coverings to choose from.

Saint Martin de Belleville is a beautifully unspoilt mountain resort with sophisticated charm and excellent links into the Three Valleys ski domain. The resort centre has a good mix of restaurants, pavement cafes, shops and sports hire facilities. Traditional chalets and low-rise apartment residences blend contemporary and traditional architecture with the beauty of the natural surroundings and offer a stunning panorama of mountain views. The Three Valleys lays claim to the biggest ski area in the world, with 600km of pistes and 200 ski lifts. The domain links Saint Martin de Belleville, Les Menuires, Val Thorens, Méribel, La Tania, Brides les Bains and Courchevel. During the summer months the area is a fabulous place for taking time out, enjoying some walking or biking, or even more adventurous paragliding and climbing for the adrenalin-seekers.
