MGM French Properties launches development in Châtel

French property developer, MGM French Properties, has launched a new development comprised of 15 luxury apartments on the French-Swiss border in the Châtel resort.

La Ferme de Suzanne, located in the heart of the resort, is also bordered by the French-Swiss Portes Du Soleil ski circuit.

The collection of one to four-bed apartments – ranging from 51.41m² to 151m² – are available for freehold or outright purchase, with starting prices at €355,000 for one bedroom to €730,000 for four bedrooms, boasting car park facilities, a ski locker and a private cellar.

Ideally positioned at the base of the Barbossine chair lift, the ski-to-door residence has spectacular views of both the valley and the village.

All 15 apartments are designed with the highest quality materials and stone tiling, fitted with granite worktop kitchens and bathrooms but left unfurnished for owners to personalise the space. Residents can enjoy the view from the balcony in addition to a large bay window.

The Châtel resort is situated just 90 minutes from Geneva airport and rests on the French-Swiss border, allowing residents access to the French slopes as well as the Swiss resorts of Torgon and Morgins.

Ski enthusiasts can enjoy access to 49 kilometres (31 miles) of cross country ski trails. The entire area comprises of 73 pistes and 61 ski lifts with the lifts above Torgon benefiting from views of Lake Geneva.

Slopes range in difficulty, with approximately a third of slopes suitable for beginners and the rest for intermediate or advance skiers. For snowboarders, there is a terrain park and boarder cross track.

“La Ferme de Suzanne is an exceptional addition to the attractive village of Châtel and offers buyers the opportunity to own property in a desirable skiing area,” said Richard Deans, sales manager at MGM French Properties.

”Châtel has retained its authentic, laid-back personality, much unlike many modern ski resorts, while still offering excellent skiing and summer activities. Buyers will benefit from exceptional quality apartments and the opportunity to reap the rewards of the guaranteed rental income offered in the leaseback scheme.”

Prices (all taxes included) are as follows:

One-bedroom apartments from €355 000 – 51.41m²

Two-bedroom apartments from €405,000 to €490,000 – 58.25m² to 70.39m²

Three-bedroom apartments from €560,000 – 83.24m²

Four-bedroom apartments from €730,000 to €1,075,000 – 107.76m² to 151.00m²
