Description
This chalet for sale in Vercors sits in Autrans-Méaudre, with a sunny southwest terrace and mountain views over a 1,164 m² garden. It spreads across three levels with 120 m² of living space, three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and it is in good condition. It works as a year-round home or a mountain base for holidays, because the plateau is as busy in summer as it is under snow.
The Chalet Over Three Levels
The ground floor is the practical level. A hallway with a cloakroom leads straight into a garage for two cars, with an electric door and power supply. The garage also holds a washing machine and shower connection, an extra toilet, the central heating boiler and a large hybrid water heater. Next to it is a generous utility room that opens directly onto the garden. Use it for storage, a summer kitchen or a garden room. The seller notes it could also become an extra bedroom with shower facilities.
A wooden staircase takes you up to the main living floor. The living room has an open fireplace, and the dining area and kitchen are open-plan, so the cook is never cut off from the table. Several French doors open onto the terrace. A large room on this floor can be a bedroom or a home office, and a small utility room with shower facilities sits beside it.
On the top floor you will find two spacious bedrooms and a bathroom with a rain shower and toilet. One bedroom has air conditioning powered by solar panels on the roof. The landing is wide enough for a TV corner or a few extra beds when friends or grandchildren come to stay.
Terrace, Garden and Mountain Views
The terrace faces southwest and has an outdoor fireplace, so you can sit out into the evening once the sun drops behind the ridge. Views are unobstructed, across the valley towards the Vercors mountains. The garden wraps around the house, and on one side a pergola with a lounge area gives you shade when the afternoon sun is strong.
The plot measures about 1,164 m², enough for children to run around, a vegetable bed or simply some distance from the neighbours. The roof is gabled and covered in slate. The chalet has double glazing, gas-fired central heating and an electric boiler for hot water, and there is ample parking on the property.
Living in Autrans-Méaudre en Vercors
Autrans-Méaudre en Vercors lies in the Parc naturel régional du Vercors, in the Isère department of the French Alps. It is best known for cross-country skiing, with around 180 km of groomed trails for both classic and skating styles. Autrans hosted the Nordic events of the 1968 Grenoble Winter Olympics, and the Foulée Blanche race still draws skiers every winter. Beginners and families can learn on gentle terrain without the crowds of the big resorts.
In summer the same landscape turns to hiking, mountain biking and canyoning in the Vercors massif. That two-season appeal is what makes a mountain chalet like this a realistic holiday home in the Vercors, and the village has events running through the year.
Getting There: Airports and Drive Times
The nearest motorway exit is less than 30 km away. Grenoble, with its main railway station, is roughly an hour by road. Lyon-Saint-Exupéry is the closer international airport, around two hours' drive, and Geneva is a little further. For a second home in France, that means a Friday flight and a Friday-night arrival are workable.
Buying a Second Home in France
A French notaire handles the legal transfer, and buyers should budget for notary fees on top of the price. With a garden this size, plan for summer upkeep and for winter snow clearing, and think about who will keep an eye on the house when you are away. The gas heating and the garage with power supply make year-round use straightforward.
