Discover this beautifully renovated former Savoyard farmhouse offering 309 m² of total floor area, including 221 m² habitable space alongside 88 m² of additional attic, mezzanine and utility spaces, set within generous grounds in a peaceful Alpine setting.
The property combines authentic character with impressive internal volumes, including a 47 m² living room, 44 m² upper salon, generous kitchen and multiple mezzanine areas, all benefiting from panoramic views across the surrounding mountains and valley landscape.
Ideally positioned within easy reach of amenities and nearby ski resorts including La Clusaz and Le Grand-Bornand, the property also offers convenient access to Annecy, Geneva and year-round Alpine activities, making it equally suited as a primary residence, mountain retreat or lifestyle investment.
Dating from 1835, this former Savoyard farmhouse has been thoughtfully renovated using high-quality materials while preserving much of its original charm and atmosphere. Positioned within a peaceful natural setting, the property enjoys wide-reaching views across the surrounding mountains and valley, creating a strong sense of space and tranquillity.
The ground floor includes an entrance, a spacious 27 m² kitchen, a large 47 m² living room, a generous bedroom and bathroom, along with utility and laundry areas. The layout provides comfortable day-to-day living with excellent natural volumes and direct access to the exterior spaces.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with a remarkable 44 m² upper salon featuring mezzanine space and exposed character features, alongside two additional bedrooms and a shower room. Additional attic spaces of more than 75 m² already benefit from direct exterior access as well as existing plumbing and electrical connections, offering exceptional flexibility and significant further development potential depending on requirements.
The property also benefits from three cellars, providing valuable storage and utility space for bikes, skis, wine storage and outdoor equipment.
Externally, the farmhouse sits within large 2984 m² sunny grounds surrounded by nature, with balconies and exterior spaces allowing full enjoyment of the panoramic mountain and valley views throughout the seasons.
An additional advantage is the property’s excellent energy performance rating, particularly notable for a character farmhouse of this scale, helping combine traditional Alpine charm with modern comfort and efficiency.
Despite its peaceful atmosphere, the property remains well connected to the wider Haute-Savoie region, with nearby ski areas, Annecy and Geneva all within accessible distance, while the surrounding mountains provide exceptional opportunities for hiking, cycling and outdoor pursuits throughout the year.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and characterful Alpine farmhouse combining authenticity, volume, efficiency and future potential in one of the most beautiful natural areas of Haute-Savoie.

In the Haute-Savoie, between Annecy and the Mont Blanc Massif is the beautiful Massif des Aravis. Tucked away here you’ll find a less well known ski area named after the mountain range. It is very beautiful, interesting and traditional.
It brings together the 4 ski resorts of La Clusaz, Le Grand-Bornand, Manigod et Saint-Jean de Sixt which offer Alpine skiing (downhill)and Nordique skiing alongside a whole host of other activities. There are 220kms of piste across the 4 resorts, 2 snow-parks, 1 half pipe of 130m. There are also 150kms of nordic skiing including the Confins plateau, which is an official site for the World Cup. Plus 26 routes for racket walking (snow shoes). At Le Grand-Bornand you’ll find the GB snow-park which is classed among the five best in France. In addition there are 2 ice rinks and an aqua centre.
Each of the four resorts have charm and retain their traditions with original architecture and a village feel, these are after all villages turned ski resort and not purpose built. There is agriculture in the area which works alongside the ski resorts retaining a very authentic feel and they work hard to preserve the mountain nature of all the resorts.
This is also a hugely popular destination for summer. All four resorts aim themselves firmly at the family market and succeed very well with this, but over the last few years a new trend has developed aimed at the rich and famous who value privacy and peace above glamour and glitz on their ski holiday this is most noticeable at La Clusaz and Grand Bornard who are member of “Top of the French Alps” a group aiming for excellence.
