Situated in St Martin de Belleville, a mountain village turned ski resort, this apartment has it all. Sunny terrace, garage, walk to the lifts, great views, quality decor and a great place to spend your holiday both for winter snow sports and summer activities. It is also a couple of minutes to the village centre where you can enjoy the festive spirit in one of the restaurants or bars. The restaurants in the village provide a good mix of eating from pizza to fine dining and the nearest to this apartment is la Montagnard, a very good fusion between Savoyard and European dining.
Best of all is the skiing; you access the 600kms of piste from a gondola that leave the village just a short walk away. You can either enjoy the full enormous area or stick to the Belleville Valley pass which in itself offers more skiing than your average ski resort and, in my opinion, some of the best you’ll find anywhere. There are plenty of runs for every level, blues run back to the village and just before them you can pick from a variety of blues or reds and some of the best fun off-piste you can find.
The whole chalet is light and airy and you enter into a nicely decorated hall with hanging space that sets the scene for the rest of the property. Continue in to a bright and sunny living area. The kitchen is to one side and has very high spec fittings with lovely marble work tops; next to this is the dining area. Further round you have a very cosy snug lounge, with wood burner which is a welcome and unusual addition to an apartment, from here you have the terrace doors leading onto an area of 8m2 which is a great space for outdoor dining and enjoying aperitifs whilst admiring the splendid and exceptional views across the village to the mountains beyond. Also on this floor is a double bedroom and shower room.
Going up to the top floor you have a further 3 bedrooms. 1 en-suite with shower room and very useful dressing room, then a further double and finally a single. There is also full bathroom.
In conclusion; here we have an ideal ski base for sale; a ski chalet with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and garage just moments from the lift that has been beautifully refurbished to a high level of decor.

Based at 1400m and directly linked into the vast Three Valleys network by an 8 person gondola, St Martin de Belleville offers unlimited, world-class skiing. The village is picture perfect, unspoiled and authentic making St Martin de Belleville the perfect ski resort if you are looking for a taste of authentic France combined with state of the art skiing. Clusters of traditional chalets and original Savoyard farmhouses are dominated by the close mountains with chamois and wild boars roaming free in the surrounding forests. St Martin was voted a “Top Ten Picture Postcard resort” for its pretty, traditional architecture and stunning Alpine scenery, it’s interesting to note that the commune have had the foresight to bury all the electric and phone cabling which means that not only does it have a clean uncluttered look, but you are unlikely to lose power when the snow hits! As an added bonus Val Thorens, officially the highest resort in Europe is situated at the top of the valley offering great skiing from mid-November to mid-May. St Martin also has some of the best and clearest runs in the Three Valleys; with skiing for all levels back down to the village and red run Jerusalem a firm favourite with many, and the confidence inspiring off-piste powder fields have to be experienced to be believed. In the height of summer during July and August the valley is host to walkers, nature lovers and adventure seekers who arrive to enjoy the traditional and less traditional mountain activities along with the colourful mountain meadows and beauty of the contrasting vibrant green against snow capped mountains. It is also a near neighbour to the Vanoise Park, a protected area of outstanding natural beauty. St Martin de Belleville has a lower key nightlife than its glitzy neighbours. Having said that, the valley boasts two Michelin starred restaurants, one being situated three minutes from the village, the other in Val Thorens. St Martin itself has several friendly bars and restaurants which retain a mountain village atmosphere with prices to match. It seems ideal for ski and mountain lovers looking for an authentic atmosphere a little apart from the crowds, and out of season it still has life and enough year round residents to stop it feeling like a ghost town.
