On Tuesday November 26, the Casa Maria Lluis residence was officially inaugurated in the heart of Toulouges.

 

Supported by Marcou Habitat, this exemplary project meets the need for accessible housing while promoting sustainable, inclusive urban development.

 

Comprising 8 social housing units, this residence offers :

- 6 low-rent PLUS apartments for low-income families.

A joint loan guarantee between the town of Toulouges and Perpignan Méditerranée Métropole (PMM).

A direct financial contribution from PMM of €58,120, demonstrating its strong commitment to social housing.

 

The residence also pays tribute to the renowned local artist Maria Lluis, famous for her works in painting and ceramics, whose artistic contribution radiates far beyond the region.
