Serre Chevalier property Guide
This is a short guide to help start your search for asset in the Southern French Alps mountain resort of Serre Chevalier. The area is most famous for it’s skiing, but there is plenty happening in the summer too. For example most years the Tour de France bike race comes through the valley, but it attracts cyclists and mountain bikers from all over Europe too. Most foreigners looking to buy asset in Serre Chevalier have usually fallen in love with the place after a skiing holiday.
Serre Chevalier has four main points for jumping onto the ski-lift system: Briançon; Chantemerle; Villeneuve; and Le Monêtier les Bains, so this is where the asset buyer should start if convenience for the ski lifts is what you’re looking for. Any way if you are not so fussed about being next to the piste and do not intend to rent your asset out, then there are some bargains to be had by just challenging a kilometer or so away from the ski lifts.

Briançon (Serre Chevalier 1200) is the main town, so favorable for shopping, the train station, swimming pool, but the pistes are south-west facing so come to be slushy and rock-strewn very quickly.

Chantemerle (Serre Chevalier 1300) has a lot of cheap 1970s purpose built blocks and is quite spread out, somewhat more commercial than picturesque. Chantemerle has challenging evenings – for Serre Chevalier.
Villeneuve (Serre Chevalier 1400) is a mix of some 1970s blocks as well as the pretty area of the old village, just over the Guisane River.
Le Monêtier les Bains (Serre Chevalier 1500) is the most exclusive community with a lift, the least commercialised spot with a lift, due to the mayor’s office looking what was happening as the development ran rampant in the valley and blocking such moves taking place.
The valley also has any villages such as Le Casset, Les Guibertes, Fressyinet and Saint-Chaffrey, which have maintained their charm, but you will have to think their remoteness, many do not have community shops at all – and snow plough services in the winter might not come right to your door, well not for free anyway.
There is also the ‘taxe foncière’ which is the ‘land tax’ to think as well as the ‘taxe d’habitation’. The valley boasts five very personel mayorships and there can be a integrate of thousand euro discrepancy in the assorted charges you have to pay on asset along the valley.
