House in La Plagne - Paradiski

House La Plagne - La Plagne

€420,000 - £364,308**

A lovely house with lots of charm and character and potential renovation projects in the town of Aime La Plagne. The shops, bars and restaurants, as well as the train station are on your doorstep and the ski resort of La Plagne is only a short drive away.
The owners have started to renovate the house so that the four bedrooms and two bathrooms are ready to move into but you can put your stamp on this property as one of the bathrooms could be modernised and there is a functional but simple kitchen.
The lounge area is the central hub of the house with three bedrooms above and one on the floor below. The views from the east-facing balconies are beautiful; up the valley and with a small stream running past the property it feels as though you are in the countryside even if you are in the middle of the town.
The loft space has yet to be developed and the garden area is ready to be turned into a quiet haven with plenty of space to have several terraces.

This town location is surprising; within walking distance of the shops and businesses of Aime and the local collège 200m away, and yet it is quiet and feels very much as though you are in the countryside.
On the ground floor is the renovated living area with access to a large balcony which gets the sun in the morning and during the day. The kitchen facilities are in place but they are a temporary measure for the new owner to decide what might work better for them.
Off the living space is a bathroom with WC; this has the original tiles and an "escargot" shower cubicle which would be easy to replace. Alternatively, you might think it adds to the quirky charm.
There are two sets of stairs; a spiral staircase to the first floor and wooden stairs to the lower floor.
On the top floor, the balcony runs the length of the house past two of the bedrooms. The third bedroom has a beautiful view of the mountain range of La Plagne. One bedroom has a door and wall struts but needs the balcony to be fitted. The three bedrooms share a bathroom.
On the lower ground floor is the fourth bedroom and second bathroom. The owners have renovated the space well making use of the uneven walls in this older property. Lovely touches such as a shelf set into the wall and colourful tiles give this room a unique feel.
The cellar and storage area are on this level and there is another access to the garden.
The land with the house runs down to the stream called the Ormente. There are several levels to the garden and each could have a different use; terrace and barbecue area, play area for the children, vegetable plot for the summer months.
The roof space of the house is yet to be developed and the views from the top of the house along the valley are stunning.

Aime is a traditional alpine town in the Tarentaise Valley with practical everyday amenities and excellent transport links that make it appealing for full-time living or as a base for a holiday home. The town is served by Gare d’Aime-La Plagne with SNCF TER regional services and seasonal TGV/Eurostar trains, offering direct connections to Bourg-Saint-Maurice, Albertville, Chambéry, Lyon and Paris.

In the town you’ll find a good selection of shops and services and for dining out there’s a range of restaurants. The town has local services such as schools, banks, pharmacies and health services, traditional markets and lots of community events such as the "Jeudis d'Aime" with live music in the centre of town every Thursday

Aime’s location in the valley places it just minutes from major alpine outdoor activities. In winter it’s a gateway to skiing and snow sports with regular shuttle services and easy access to the vast Paradiski of La Plagne and Les Arcs, whilst in summer the surrounding mountains offer hiking, mountain biking as well as the cycle path from Aime to Bourg which runs past the Plan d'eau lake; a fabulous destination.

It's on your doorstep!
