Property Description

This traditional house sits in the heart of the old part of Les Allues, Meribel. Currently it is split up into three apartments with a large cave and has generated excellent rental income for the last 15 years. Equally, the apartments could easily be converted into one large four/five bedroom chalet without too much work. This house is just a few minutes walk from the Les Allues telecabine, local shops, bars and restaurants.



The house is made up as follows from the top down:-


Top floor: studio apartment with a bathroom and separate WC – minimal work required for this to be an ensuite bedroom. Third Floor: two bedroom apartment with a large open plan living room and kitchen, with a balcony – plenty of natural light. Minimal work required to convert this floor into three bedrooms and two bathrooms (by putting in a bathroom where the existing kitchen is).


Second Floor: two bedroom apartment with a large open plan living room and kitchen and open fire – ideal for converting the whole floor into an open plan kitchen/diner/living room with the benefit of the larger sunny balcony.


Ground Floor: entrance, cave, utility rooms – possibility to convert some of this space into an extra bedroom if so desired (no limit on conversion of habitable space, although the purchase of a parking space may be required if the whole ground floor was converted to living space).


Les Allues is a village that buzzes all year round, contrary to some of the higher resorts in the Three Valleys. In a sunny position with great views, people come here for its easy access to the Meribel and Three Valley ski opportunities but also for the mountain and road biking and walking opportunities in summer. There are a few restaurants and local bars, ski hire shops and a small grocery store.


Meribel is within a 2 hour radius of three airports – Grenoble, Geneva and Chambery and also just 20 minutes away from Moutiers where frequent trains arrive from Paris, London and other major cities.

Méribel

Resort Description

Méribel is one of most popular resorts in Europe for English-speaking skiers along with Courchevel and Val d’Isere.


Meribel is the central valley of the largest ski domain in the world, Les 3 Vallées.


With 600 km of groomed pistes, 85% of which are above 1800 metres, 25 accessible summits, 174 modern lifts and over 2090 snow cannons covering 43% of the ski area the statistics are impressive as is the skiing. However Méribel is much more than the 5 month winter ski season and an extended stay in summer or during the colours of autumn are needed to appreciate this.


The initial development of the ski resort in the late 1930’s was a British and French partnership and this acceptance of English speakers continues to this day. Méribel is now a much more diverse international community with a large percentage of residents or visitors speaking English as their main or second language.


The main village of Méribel is built on the eastern side of the valley between 1450 and 1700 metres and because of this it is surrounded by forests or grass & timbered slopes. The strict architectural codes of alpine sloping rooflines, timber and stone cladding compliments this setting and makes it one of, if not the most, attractive of all the large high altitude French ski resorts.


The other major “resort villages” are Méribel Mottaret (1750 m), Méribel Village (1400 m), Les Allues (1100m) and the spa town of Brides-Les-Bains (600 m) at the very bottom of the valley. There are many smaller villages or hamlets so the range of property covers all tastes from barn conversions & village houses through to ski apartments and super luxury ski in ski out chalets with private swimming pools. As well as the normal range of hotels, bars, restaurants & shops Méribel boasts a range of facilities and activities.


The Méribel Olympic Centre is home to a full size ice rink, indoor climbing wall, 25 metres indoor heated pool and water slide, conference centre, gymnasium and wellness centre of spa, steamrooms, etc.


There is a spectacular 18 hole Golf Course at 1700 metres and a huge range of other outdoor activities such as tennis, hiking, mountain biking, road cycling, paragliding, fishing, etc which are enjoyed in the warmer months. Méribel property is generally more expensive than other French resorts but not yet at the dizzy heights of Courchevel 1850 with perhaps the exception of a few of the most prestigious pockets.


As Méribel continues to become ever more popular with the big spenders of the world the strong capital growth experienced over many many years is likely to continue.
