La Ferme - La Clusaz - French Alps







After 7 months of negotiation planning consent has finally been secured for the renovation and redevelopment of a traditional farmhouse in the French Alps.
Having worked with the clients on their previous home (See Frank's House on the main website) Frank McGoldrick and Aline Courquin appointed Willmore Iles Architects to provide concept design and surveying services for the renovation of a 1822 traditional timber farmhouse on the outskirts of the ski resort of La Clusaz in the Haute Savoie. The proposals retain as much of the original fabric of the building as possible with some contemporary interventions to maximise the amazing views and realise the potential of this beautiful structure. A local architect was appointed to submit the proposals and after months of beauraucracy permission for the scheme has finally been granted. See image above of Frank proudly displaying his permit.
Site visits to be booked for the first dump of winter!
