Palais de Justice

property details · for a Hub House co-operative coliving project

Area ✧ large village (6k pop) and the only large one in the area being the first when descending from the mountains — but a bit unprepossessing yet has a square with cafes and restos being adequately French, plus a big lively weekly market; really comes into its own by offering good access to varied surroundings from the beaches at 45mins drive to the mountains just 25mins by bus

---

railway is currently closed for the last section awaiting reconstruction of a damaged bridge, reopening in 2026, until then only 10mins slower by bus to Perpignan

---

there's multip-le supermarkets, including an organic one, plus in addition to the big weekly market at the door, there's also an organic one

---

hikes from village only start 20mins along lanes either to north or south, but better to take bus / drive
✦ tennis 10mins walk, buggy driving, climbing, horse riding, all near
✦ 10mins train and 30mins walk to the impressive natural formations of Les Orgues
✦ 20mins bike/bus to cute hamlet with cafes
✦ more interesting villages, abbeys, chateaus etc in around 30–40mins
✦ 30mins drive (/ bus / train) to secret hot springs and very impressive suspended walk gorge hike
✦ biking decent albeit most with significant climbing (500m+), very good in combo with train/dropoff
✦ ski stations and high mountains 45mins drive / bus / train
✦ kitesurfing 1h drive
✦ 40mins drive (1h bus) to secret hot springs and hikes up a gorge leading to a remote lake overnighting in a hut
✦ 1h drive to much nicer coast at Argeles/Collioure

---

whilst Perpignan station is okay as a daytrip into the city, it's a further 15mins walk into the centre
✦ super easy access via Perpignan for flights from to Barcelona and other regional airports (Perpignan, Montpellier, Carcassonne, Beziers) and also TGVs from Paris, London and northern Europe

property detail ↗︎

Property ✧ in the category of properties not requiring significant work before use this is good value except for being small, nonetheless with an easy extension and some reorganisation of rooms would become better value
✦ see also #295 same price in a village closer to the coast and larger but requiring full fitout works

---

classic townhouse but has an extension behind into the garden
✦ currently 6 big bedrooms could simply be tidied up for 30k/bedroom amongst 6 co-owners, but waste of space as rooms are large thus better properly optimised with fractional coownership
✦ tax likely currently around €4,000/year; not unreasonable with raw division at €600 (room/unit/coowner) but would be lower with more units

---
