	Vista Baranc, meaning view over the valley or gorge, is a spacious plot with spectacular views to the local hills and mountains. It is sited in an area where a small number of other properties are located or will be built. All will be widely separated with the closest a hundred metres or more away. Until a few years ago, it was an old working smallholding, today with a small ruined stone building that could be rebuilt as part of the new home, subject to the approval of the final designs in line with the permissions already approved. Vista Baranc is just a couple of kilometres from Rasquera, an attractive small inland country town in the Tarragona region of Catalonia. Rasquera has most services including a school, a small supermarket, shops, cafes and restaurants. The plot is mostly gravelly soil over bedrock, with a large central flat area, attractively sloping away on two sides to wooded areas with pines and bushes; this would be ideal for opening up with simple pathways and picnic spots. A large part of the flat area, around where the new home might be built, is terraced with some fig but mainly olive trees. These could be pruned and brought back into productive cultivation, if wished. (The vendors have been advised that local farmers will agree to prune and maintain the olive trees without charge, in exchange for picking the crop and returning to the owner a percentage of the olive oil produced.) The plot has a cultivated area of just less than 3.6 acres (1.45 hectares). However, the total area, including the wooded sections, is just over 5.9 acres (2.4 hectares). Water and Electricity to the edge of the site. There is permission for a new building of 75 square metres in area (around 820 sq ft.). This would not include covered terraces, basements or loft spaces. The airport of Reus is only around 45 minutes away. Arrangements can be made to meet and transport visitors to the site.
