A Beautifully Renovated House in the Heart of a Thriving Village. It would Make a Wonderful Home or Small Business.

Property Description

This unusual semi-detached property has been carefully renovated with taste and style, it has most recently been run as a successful ‘Gite’. Originally ‘le Borne’, smoke-house for the village, the huge smoking chimney (possibly the largest in the Haute Savoie) is a feature of the building.

The ground floor has an entrance from the village road into the reception area and sitting room. There is a large dining area which seats 20+ people, a second sitting area beneath the smoke chimney. A wine cellar, scullery and a large kitchen with a door at the rear of the house to the sunken terrace. A WC and cloakroom lead off from the sitting room, also the stairs to the first floor.

On the first floor there are 3 guest bedrooms all ‘en-suite’, two are very spacious. Also a master bedroom with dressing room, shower and WC. This room is large enough to be a small apartment.

The loft area would provide a further +/-90m2 of habitable space, services are all in place ready to expand into this area. The original idea had been for another bedroom, a dormitory, a sauna and a sundeck, space for a staircase to this level has been allowed for.

The land includes two parking spaces next to the terrace, a further 4 spaces of communal parking are right next to the building. The heating is under floor. Works that will be included in the sale will be the replacing of the guttering and installing the fire and chimney which is already designed to make the most of the smoke-house area.

There is tremendous potential for this property, the loft area could provide so many options, a games room, another terrace, and/or more bedrooms. The reception areas could well serve as restaurant seating, this property could easily be a fantastic family home, a business, or both.

Lullin village has a mini-supermarket, baker, bar, butcher, chemist in fact all the commerce you need. The surrounding countryside is agricultural and forest there are plenty of Savoyard traditions maintained here. The nearest skiing is at Hirmentaz/Les Haberes, 5 mins drive, the Roc d’Enfer circuit 20mins, Ardent (Les Portes du Soleil) 30mins. Geneva airport is around 45mins away and the large town of Thonon les Bains and Lake Geneva are only 20mins drive. There are plenty of schools nearby, including a secondary college.
