Chalet 72, Morzine, France

Description

This is quite a find – a large chalet in a quiet residential area close to the centre of Morzine with huge garden – it’s got the lot! Chalet 72 was the owner’s family home until his children grew up and moved out. Now it has been refurbished to a very high standard as a summer holiday home. This outstanding chalet is in a quiet residential street on Taille de Mas de la Chenalette, just 600m from the mountain lifts and the centre of the resort and just 150m from the bus stop, so a car is not essential. It’s a great location for a summer or winter holiday, with mountain and lakeside walks as well as mountain biking, climbing, skiing and much more. Sleeping 17 people (14 adults) in seven bedrooms over three floors, the chalet is definitely rather popular.

The main living area is on the ground floor – there’s a huge seating area around a large stone fireplace and a large dining area which opens on to the well-equipped kitchen. There are also doors on to the terrace and the secluded garden. The side garden is big enough for a game of football, leaving those who’d rather relax to enjoy the hot tub on the sun-drenched or snow laden terrace.

There are three bedrooms on this floor – two en suite twin rooms and a double bedroom, with a separate bathroom and a guest toilet. On the lower ground floor there’s a useful family suite with a double bed and bunk beds as well as a kitchenette and an en suite bathroom. Opening on to the garden, it’s a great area for a family with young children who would like their own space.

The two remaining bedrooms are on the upper floor. There is a triple room with three single beds and an en suite shower room and another room with a double and a single bed, as well as a bathroom and separate toilet. There is also a useful mezzanine seating area which has a pool table, perfect for teenagers to get together in the evenings. Choose to stay here on either a self catered or an excellent catered half board basis to suit.
