The location:
The residence will be part of a new residential ensemble situated in the Saint-Assiscle quarter. The village atmosphere combines business and pleasure, with numerous companies nearby. It is also within quick and easy access of the charming streets of the old town as well as the commercial areas on the periphery. Perpignan is the second town of the Languedoc-Roussillon area and the third in France in terms of growth. It makes for an attractive town in many different ways- mild winters, 320 days of sunshine a year, a strong Catalan identity (with numerous festivals throughout the year) and a location which means one can benefit from skiing in the Pyrenees and the beaches of the Mediterranean... without counting the dynamic economy and its position as premier European platform for fruit and vegetables. All amenities are present and there is a good selection of schools. The town offers several attractions like the St-Vicens Centre, the Chateau de Salses or Le Palais des Rois de Majorque.

Activities:
As Perpignan is a large city there are all sorts of sports that can be practiced, such as horse riding, hockey, golf, fishing, hiking, athletics,  cycling, tennis, and a range of water-sports as Perpignan is 15 min from to the sea.

Local food and gastronomy:
Food around Perpignan has a certain Catalan influence, so local dishes can include crème catalane, l’ollada (a peasant soup), boles de Picolat (meatballs with olives and spices) and Catalan lamb. Fresh produce involves a variety of pates, sausages and dried meat, fish (sardines, anchovies), fruit, vegetables.

Sextant has its own French mortgage brokerage service in order to find the most suitable mortgage for each client. Whether you want an interest-only mortgage, a traditional repayment mortgage or hybrid mortgage, Sextant can get the right mortgage for you.
