The chalets are new and off-plan so you can choose the different options:
-You can decide to keep only the three double bedrooms upstairs and transform part of the 4th bedroom (next to living room) into a second bathroom or simply add futher living area to your reception.
-You can decide to upgrade your kitchen or bathroom at cost
_Extend the size of existing balcony and transform into a wide angle terrace
-Extend chalet size by extending entrance into a further storage space
--The basement (garage area in original plan) is the size of the other storeys so can be transformed easily into further living space.What some of our clients have done:
-Sauna + gym + ping pong area, separate 2-bedroom apartment fully-contained and separate for letting, 2 extra bedrooms with bathroom. Obviously the options are almost endless as this is almost 40m2 of surface. We can show you some of the transformed chalets.
The chalets can be purchased in their original version and then transformed later.
All the chalets are built using traditional techniques from local Savoyard craftsmen. We also use a local fireplace fitter in case you wish to have a stove or fireplace fitted in your chalet. The floors are wood floors in reception area and in bedrooms (can be carpet in bedrooms). Wood panelling on the walls for the true Alpine feel (locally-sourced wood). The level of finishing is exceptional at this price including the wood work (traditional wood shutters) by local Savoyard craftsmen (see photos).
