Part farmhouse, part converted barn. Situated on a hillside on the outskirts of Lescheraines in the heart of the Massif des Bauges regional park near Annecy, this spacious house is in an area of outstanding natural beauty, it's a fabulous summer destination to unwind, chill or indulge in sporting activities!
Le Crozet enjoys superb views from the balcony and terrace facing Arith with open views towards Annecy; it’s a 30 minute drive from the beautiful towns of Chambery, Aix-Les Bains and the fabulous 'Venice of the alps' – Annecy.
This house is great for either a relaxed family holiday or more energetic walking, cycling (both road and mountain biking) and outdoor activities. The stunning half timbered entrance hall with its high ceiling is perfect for relaxing on the sofa with a book or for children to play. Off the hall is the sitting room with another couple of sofas, a games cupboard, a variety of toys, laden bookshelf and UK satellite television/ radio. A large kitchen/ diner has fantastic views over the valley towards Arith and is well equipped. I am a keen cook so I hope that you'll find all the gadgets you need as well as a good supply of food basics to help you get settled in. The large table seats 8 comfortably. A back door leads out of the kitchen to a balcony with bench for relaxing while someone else tends the barbecue. Large roof eves make it possible to use the barbecue even if the weather isn't perfect. A flight of steps leads down to a large terrace with pergola and outside dining table and benches. The rooms are large and airy with a relaxed comfortable feel. Upstairs is the master bedroom with en-suite bathroom with a heated mirror, heated towel rail, large shower and a bath not to mention the fabulous views. A second double bedroom has a hand crafted bed and both have plenty of hanging and cupboard space as well as hairdryer. Another bathroom with shower upstairs. The two further bedrooms are light and airy with a balcony along the front of the house. The hamlet is wonderfully quiet - other than cows passing, traffic is rare and owls are probably the noisiest thing at night!
