The architectural complex, of considerable value, consists of several buildings and large open spaces and greenery, is completely surrounded by local stone walls and is accessed through two entrances.

Main building
After passing the entrance, bordered by two shaped stone pillars, you enter a long avenue which, crossing a grove of pines, eucalyptus, fir trees and other essences, leads to the manor house with a beautiful neoclassical façade.


The ground floor of the house offers a large entrance hall and other spacious side rooms, characterized by barrel and pavilion vaults. There are also several utility rooms here. On the left side of the ground floor, there is a large former stable greenhouse made entirely of stone, with evident traces of the former mangers, adding a touch of history and authenticity.
