3 bedroom chalet, with stunning views of the Durance Valley, close to Guillestre and Queyras Regional Park.
The Chalet....
This unique property, built 20 years ago, sits high on the last village before Risoul resort, having the most stunning views of the Durance Valley and the town of Guillestre below.
The chalet comes with 2 garages and potting shed, and has a manageable garden and outside terrace that takes the morning sun.
On the ground floor is a spacious entrance hall and a small laundry room. There is also a double bedroom with en suite shower and sauna.
Upstairs is the main open plan living area, which leads out on to the wrap around balcony that over looks the valley. The recently installed kitchen has an island an modern appliances.
This main space is heated with a pellet burner that adds both warmth and atmosphere. The lounge has been extended at one end with a high ceiling annexe, with comfy sofas and TV.
On the upper floor is a large bathroom with tub, an office space, double bedroom and a 3rd kids bedroom.
The whole property is traditional alpine, with beautiful finishings in wood and stone.
The regular ski shuttle (navette) connects the village to the slopes, and Guillestre—with its shops, restaurants, and amenities. In winter, it is sometimes possible to ski to the front door down a forest track from the resort.
Rarely do properties of this quality and charm become available in the area. This is a unique opportunity to own a beautifully crafted Alpine chalet with one of the most stunning views in the region.
The Area.....
The Vars/Risoul ski domain, La Forêt Blanche, is ideal for a family holiday, offering 180km of varied pistes, excellent ski schools, and dedicated kids’ zones. Tree-lined slopes provide a safe, scenic setting for all abilities.
The chalet is located next to Guillestre, the closest town to the Queyras Regional Natural Park, famous for the ancient chateau and the 7 micro ski stations which can be accessed with one weekly ski pass.

Ski Area: Vars - Risoul (Domaine de la Foret Blanche)
Vars is a picturesque ski village which is connected by piste to Risoul, making up an impressive 185 kms of piste. They are located in the heart of the Southern Alps just beside the historic town of Guillestre, which is the gateway to the Queyras National Park.
This whole area is relatively unknown in foreign ski circles, but popular with skiers from the south coast of France, as it is only 2 hours away. The villages are authentic but still have all of the facilities found in more expensive, more exploited ski resorts.
