Buying ski property in France
Ski property in France is centred on the French Alps, where resorts range from purpose-built stations with ski-in, ski-out apartments to traditional villages of timber and stone chalets. Buyers can choose between a compact apartment close to the lifts and a larger chalet with space for family and friends, often with a boot room, a wood burner and balconies facing the peaks.
Distance to the lifts matters more than almost anything else, for enjoyment and resale. Check the altitude of the resort and how reliably it holds its snow, and consider how the area feels in summer, when walking, cycling and lakes bring a second season. Lock-up-and-leave apartments suit occasional owners, while chalets need more care. Rules on letting vary by resort, so ask early.
