Exclusively at Prestige by Arthurimmo.com GRAND LAC - AIX LES BAINS.The mere arrival on the site immediately instills the feeling that you are about to experience something unique. As soon as you pass through the magnificent wrought iron gate of this property, time stands still.This is as much due to the welcoming courtyard harmoniously serving the three historic buildings of character, as it is to the suggestively appearing 2500m² gardens and its paved paths leading to the Pool-House a little further away. The closed doors of the property, with its still-stone peripheral walls, bestow the place with all the prestige and elegance of a fortified house from the 17th century, rich in history, boasting a dominant position and view over the valley and the surrounding mountains.The property is situated on the very first balconies of the sought-after commune of Le Motte-Servolex (the 4th largest town in Savoie), in perfect calm, on the foothills of the Epine mountain range.Located less than 15 minutes from the agglomerations of Aix-Les-Bains, among the three mid-sized cities that have been the most attractive in France over the past five years according to nearly all surveys, and Chambéry, a city of history celebrated by the Albertville Olympics, this unique estate, with remarkable and protected character, benefits from an absolutely privileged location.The highway is 5 minutes away, connecting Lyon, Geneva, and Grenoble in under an hour. The city center is 3 minutes from the house. Yet, without being isolated, the property is a true haven of peace, on the edge of countryside and forest.Set on 3700m² of flat, grassed gardens, bordered by a peripheral wall ensuring privacy, the property consists of 5 volumes and its gardens at the center.The welcoming courtyard (possible parking area of about 400m²) at the southern boundary of the property serves to the east and west, two initial volumes:1) A secondary building independent over 3 levels, which includes, on the ground floor, 150m² of dependencies of which 45m² is fitted. Two 70m² apartments were fitted out in 2015 on the first floor, accessible by a covered outdoor staircase. 200m² of attic space above (covered staircase). The building is constructed of local stone (19th century, local stones put together with mortar).2) A barn structure composed of two rooms of 42 and 32m² on the ground floor, and 82m² open space on the upper level, accessible by stairs. A reconstruction has not been completed, leaving the intermediate slab, gables, stairs, and balcony in rough form, ready to accommodate a new project.A second traditional gate further delineates access to the gardens (2550m²) divided by vehicle-accessible paths leading:3) To the left (west side) is the remarkable main residential building over 3 levels with 2 fitted, totaling 350m² of habitable space (the attic at the upper level is 200m²).
