Description

Au cœur de la vieille ville d’Annecy, dans un cadre vivant et recherché, cet appartement en duplex de 121 m² utiles se situe aux derniers étages d’une bâtisse de caractère du centre historique.

La pièce de vie, ouverte et lumineuse, s’organise autour d’un escalier central qui structure parfaitement l’espace. Les volumes sont agréables, avec une vraie sensation d’espace et une circulation fluide entre les différents niveaux. Les nombreuses ouvertures et fenêtres de toit apportent beaucoup de lumière tout au long de la journée, avec en prime une vue dégagée sur les toits et le château d’Annecy.

L’appartement propose deux chambres ainsi qu’un espace complémentaire sur la mezzanine, idéal pour un coin nuit, un bureau ou un espace détente selon les besoins. Côté pratique, le bien dispose d’un WC à chaque niveau, d’une grande buanderie ainsi que de plusieurs espaces de rangement, offrant un confort de vie proche de celui d’une maison.

On retrouve un bel équilibre entre le charme de l’ancien, avec notamment les poutres apparentes, et un style plus contemporain type architecte, qui donne au bien une vraie identité.

Pour plus d’informations ou organiser une visite, n’hésitez pas à me contacter.

Next steps for moving to France

Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.

1

Understand the buying rules

Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.

2

Sort out your visa

Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.

3

Plan your finances

Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.

4

Know your tax obligations

US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.

5

Set up healthcare

Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.

6

Run the full checklist

Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
