It has been built with carved stone, with wide (70 cm) inside and outside walls, masonry Genovese type cruciform and curved arch room ceilings and it covers a total area of 248 square meters. During 1982, extensive interventions were conducted, in order to renovate the building and create improvement works around the structure, in order to facilitate modern day living accomodations. Today, the restored house and the surrounding leisure and recreational areas comprise a notable building complex, which combines the historicity of the building's architectural form with the current comforts of modern living.

Immediately adjacent to the patio and at a lower level, extends the 72 square meter swimming pool, surrounded by tiled recreational space and facilitated with a bar, a WC and a utility room. Adjacent and attached to the house is a small, about 64 square meter, cottage, built in the 19th century, which may be used as a guest house or as a residence for the property's caretaker. The grove is planted mainly with orange and tangerine trees and is irrigated from an in place water well, located in the property, and through an autonomous irrigation complex.
