_Holiday home of the week: Four bedroom family chalet with spa in Chamonix
Asking price: €1,295,000/£1,136,879.52
Spanning two floors, pared down materials are used to great effect and include wood and slate as well contemporary design features.
At the heart of the traditional Savoyard style chalet is a large, open plan living and dining room with exposed trussed rafters, modern open fire and American kitchen and breakfast bar.
Raised level living space maximises on the superb views of the Mont Blanc Massif. French doors from the living area lead onto the south facing balcony and down to the decking area and small garden which has a spa pool - the perfect tonic for aching muscles after a day's skiing.
Four good sized bedrooms are on ground floor level as well as an internal garage which can be used for equipment storage.
The chalet sits in a quiet location close to sports complex and cross country skiing tracks in a traditional part of Chamonix; it is a short 10 minute walk to Chamonix's town square with its vibrant bars, restaurants and shops.
In superb condition, Chalet Baie is a great lock-up-and-leave, family friendly chalet which can be rented when not in use or out of season.
Popular Chamonix is easily accessible with transfers at Geneva airport (1 hour).
