THE STRUCTURE
The building was a small chalet originally and extended to create the existing commercial layout in 1988. Further work in 2018 provided staff accommodation on the 1st floor. The property is located on the ski pistes of Hirmentaz, accessible by tarmac road in summer and 200m from the nearest parking in winter.

There is plenty of scope for further development to provide more seating and/or accommodation. A 'Gite' or Chalet/Hotel would be feasible. Situated on a plot of land of 540m2, there are 3 further plots of unattached land included in the purchase which equate to approximately 1500m2.

On the ground floor there is a bar area accessed from the terrace with WC's for the clientèle. Also the main dining area, a second dining area and the kitchen and storage area. The 1st floor can be accessed by two separate staircases, one area has 2 bedrooms a shower/WC and small kitchenette, the other has two staff bedrooms and a shower room/WC with washing and drying machines. This floor area is approximately 43m2, 29m2 of which has a ceiling height below 1.80m, its layout allows for flexibility in use. Beneath the property is a large cellar and store area, also with 2 staff bedrooms. Above the bar another terrace exists.

THE BUSINESS
Due to the proximity to the ski station, this is NOT just a piste restaurant; it is open in the evening. The terrace can seat 120+ in winter, the bar can seat 15 and the two dining areas 45. The location is perfect right on the main ski piste and near 2 strategic ski lifts. Full licences are included in the sale, contacts and suppliers will be provided and a hand over period can be arranged. Hygiene and Fire regulations are up-to-date. Recently the business has only operated during the winter and has done exceptionally well, the summer business (if exploited) would provide a very good income.

THE EQUIPMENT
The property comes fully furnished and equipped to run the bar/restaurant. This represents thousands of Euros of professional catering equipment, a 'ski-doo' is also included.
