Finca/Country House for sale in El Perelló, Tarragona

I think you may have guessed it? Finca Panorama is called Finca Panorama because it enjoys the most incredible views of the Mediterranean, with a breathtaking vista that looks down upon the Ebro delta and winding, serpentine Catalan coastline.

This house was renovated by an Italian who is an eco-artist. Gifted with “green fingers” and a lot of imagination, the gardens reflect years of prudent planting, terraces and tree-houses, dotted with walkways, hedgerows, flowering plants, raised-garden beds and lots of patios with sea views. In the middle of this verdant paradise with its winding pathways, there is a quaint little pool with a sun deck, just the right size for floating around in and cooling off on a hot July day.

The house itself also has great charm and is quite substantial, with 140 m² of internal space. On the ground floor there is a drawing room and study, an independent kitchen connected via sliding French windows to a magnificent 20 m² tiled patio covered with a wooden pergola, providing a perfect panorama of blue sea and sandy beaches. There is also a utility room and a large bathroom with shower.

The stairwell that brings you upstairs is quite a grand and airy structure that leads to a spacious mezzanine that can be used to curl up on the sofa-bed and read a book, or, as it often is, can be used as a third bedroom. There are two other spacious bedrooms on this floor, plus a WC. All in all, it is a great size for a rural house in the area, but also has huge potential to redevelop.

One thing you will not want to change is that the finca is happily located at the end of the road, embraced by a curve of mountain to the rear, so there is no passing traffic—only perfect tranquillity. It is also an ecological house with two solar systems, one being a back-up to the main system. There is a main cisterna with a capacity of 18,000 l that collects rainwater from the roof. The property and gardens are fenced, which is important if you have animals or pets. This fenced area is approximately 5,000 m², while the rest of the land—more than 3 hectares planted in olive trees and pine forest—is open.

The good news is that Panorama is 7 kilometers from the village of L’Ampolla, where paella and prawns are always cooked to perfection, while El Perelló town is just a ten-minute drive on a country road. This town is full of cafes and restaurants, while the agrobotiga or local cooperative offers a spectacular local wine.

There is also a great weekly market that takes place every Saturday morning, where you can buy fresh vegetables, cured hams and salami, or locally produced handmade cheeses.

Which brings us to the question: who is this lovely property for? The answer is simple. It is for anyone who wants to live in paradise, wants the most amazing views of the coastline, and also wants easy access to beaches, restaurants and nearby towns in the area.

The price is negotiable.
