Apartments in a former cork factory, near the Spanish border u. Mediterranean Sea

This airy loft-like apartment (Maillol, A8) is on the 2nd Floor of our elaborately restored cork factory, quiet and centrally located in the center of Maureillas-las Illas, at the foot of the Pyrenees foothills (les Albères). It can be reached via a steel structure in front of the building with balcony areas and 2 external stairs.
The apartment has a large volume (room height up to the gable 4. 00 m) and offers enough space for 4 people on 73 sqm. It is decorated in a modern style. Non smoking, smoking allowed outside only.
