House Saint Martin de Belleville - Saint Martin de Belleville
€1,595,000
- £1,335,095**
Prominently situated in the heart of Saint Martin de Belleville, this striking house is one of the oldest in the village and retains many of its authentic features. This historic property has been transformed into four distinct apartments which could offer numerous possibilities for a future owner. The exterior of the house was re-rendered in 2020 using traditional materials and in keeping with the local planning regulations, with a prominent and eye-catching result.
This property is ideally situated in St Martin de Belleville just a short walk from the ski lifts and village square. With bars, restaurants and local shops easily accessible, this property makes for a fantastic investment in the French Alps.
This property not only holds historic value but offers huge potential for further conversion and customisation should a future owner wish to.
The village house is separated into 5 apartments of which one of the apartments situated on the ground floor is not part of the sale; this however would by no means compromise the use of this prominent village house or a potential future reconfiguration.
The property for sale is separated into four apartments. Three of these are used to generate seasonal rental income, and the fourth is retained by the owners for personal use.
Two of the apartments are almost identical both comprising three bedrooms, a kitchen, WC and shower room each measuring approximately 40m².
The third apartment is situated on the first floor which is a one-bedroom apartment with a kitchen, WC and shower room has a habitable area of 36m².
The largest apartment and most prominent is situated on the top two floors of the house as a duplex apartment which is spread between the second and third floors as well as an additional mezzanine area. This area totals approximately 110m².
The apartment features four double bedrooms, a comfortable living area with fireplace, a newly fitted kitchen, two bathrooms and a mezzanine which leads to further sleeping accommodation.
The ground floor is currently a cellar space of 38m², with the possibility of conversion to create additional surface area or could lend itself to a spacious ski room with storage or alternatively into a sauna/spa area.
Ideally situated in front of the property is a plot of land with 4 private parking spaces which is part of the sale of the property.
St Martin de Belleville is an authentic mountain village located within the renowned Three Valleys ski area and its expansive network of world-class ski slopes, making it a haven for winter sports enthusiasts.

A beautiful place all year with highly defined seasons and quiet and tranquil out of the ski season when the crowds have gone home, and then suddenly once again each winter the mountains of the Three Valleys come alive with people enjoying this vast ski area... The largest linked skiing in the world.The Three Valleys ski domain provides more than 600km of runs and probably the same again off-piste. In fact it should now be called the Four Valleys with the link into Orelle (Maurienne Valley) which can be accessed by ski from Val Thorens. This has also opened up some extraordinary off-piste runs. The Three Valleys provides direct links between the ski resorts of St Martin de Belleville, Les Menuires, Val Thorens, Méribel, Mottaret, La Tania, Brides les Bains and the four Courchevel resorts, la Praz, 1550, 1650 and the world famous 1850 - and now Orelle, in the fourth valley - all under one ski pass offering on-piste skiing from 1300m all the way up to 3200m. As these figures show the Three Valleys ski area offers huge altitude differences favouring long run skiing.It has an ultra efficient, state of the art ski lift system, quality piste preparation and a dense artificial snow making system (1920 snow cannons) complementing the excellent natural snow cover. However, if you are not a fan of downhill skiing or like some variety during your stay then you can also roam the domain at your leisure on foot, hiking along the marked trails, or using the pedestrian ski lift passes. Many trails have been created especially to enjoy the increasingly popular snowshoeing sport and to discover the valleys from a new perspective: flora, wildlife, monuments, and spectacular scenery. There are also many cross-country skiing tracks that are prepared and maintained each day. These allow you to take in the breathtaking scenery and provide the opportunity to appreciate the beauty of the mountains away from the pistes.An interesting and wonderful area all year round, there is much more here than the snow sports.
Based at 1400m and directly linked into the vast Three Valleys network by an 8 person gondola, St Martin de Belleville offers unlimited, world-class skiing.
The village is picture perfect, unspoiled and authentic making St Martin de Belleville the perfect ski resort if you are looking for a taste of authentic France combined with state of the art skiing. Clusters of traditional chalets and original Savoyard farmhouses are dominated by the close mountains with chamois and wild boars roaming free in the surrounding forests. St Martin was voted a “Top Ten Picture Postcard resort” for its pretty, traditional architecture and stunning Alpine scenery, it’s interesting to note that the commune have had the foresight to bury all the electric and phone cabling which means that not only does it have a clean uncluttered look, but you are unlikely to lose power when the snow hits!
As an added bonus Val Thorens, officially the highest resort in Europe is situated at the top of the valley offering great skiing from mid-November to mid-May. St Martin also has some of the best and clearest runs in the Three Valleys; with skiing for all levels back down to the village and red run Jerusalem a firm favourite with many, and the confidence inspiring off-piste powder fields have to be experienced to be believed. In the height of summer during July and August the valley is host to walkers, nature lovers and adventure seekers who arrive to enjoy the traditional and less traditional mountain activities along with the colourful mountain meadows and beauty of the contrasting vibrant green against snow capped mountains.
It is also a near neighbour to the Vanoise Park, a protected area of outstanding natural beauty. St Martin de Belleville has a lower key nightlife than its glitzy neighbours. Having said that, the valley boasts two Michelin starred restaurants, one being situated three minutes from the village, the other in Val Thorens. St Martin itself has several friendly bars and restaurants which retain a mountain village atmosphere with prices to match. This ski resort seems ideal for ski and mountain lovers looking for an authentic atmosphere a little apart from the crowds, and out of season it still has life and enough year round residents to stop it feeling like a ghost town.
