Bespoke new homes planned for an historic lakeside town in the Haute-Savoie region of France will be a showcase for environmentally-friendly development. That is the claim of of one of France’s leading Alpine developer, MGM, which has just started work on exclusive new luxury apartments at La Reserve in the historic and picturesque lakeside town of Annecy.
Comprising two, three-storey buildings together containing 17, one- to three-bedroom apartments in the residential area fronting Annecy’s prestigious Avenue d’Albigny – dubbed ‘the Champs Élysées of Annecy,’ it is said to be the town’s ‘most enviable address’ – La Reserve follows the success of MGM’s first three developments in the area.
Contemporary external and internal design
In the latest scheme – La Villa d’Artagnan – all but one of the 18 homes ranging from one-bedroom apartments to a four-bedroom duplex have been sold but MGM is retaining its show apartment so that off-plan buyers at La Reserve can see the variety and calibre of the finishes available.
Says Richard Deans, sales consultant in MGM’s London office: “La Reserve, which features a contemporary external and internal design, is highly unusual as buyers can choose from a huge variety of kitchens, bathrooms, doors, tiles and other finishes to personalise their bespoke home.” All the properties will have spacious balconies or terraces, many with views of the lake and mountains.
“MGM has pledged to design and build homes which respect and help to conserve the environment and natural resources,” says Richard. “Those planned at La Reserve will be a showcase for environmentally-friendly development.”
This project has features that range from geothermic under-floor heating to the use of water-based products in place of conventional solvent-based ones. In many case MGM has opted for building materials that can be recycled in the longer term.
Prices of the apartments at La Reserve, which will be ready for occupation in the summer of 2011, start at €560,000 for a two-bedroom apartment of 64 square feet. Investors could expect to achieve a monthly rental income for a two-bedroom apartment of in the region of €1,600 to €1,700 during the ski season and summer months, says Richard Deans.
