DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDING

The tower (395 m² – 4,250 ft², 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms) is split into three independent apartments plus a technical room (4 sqm – 43 sqft) with with own access from outside.

Once a watchtower guarding the underlying valley, the building has been entirely restored and is in good condition. Inside the tower, the restoration aimed at preserving its most characteristic features, with stone walls and doorways well visible. A new renovation carried out in 2022 included the replacement of the insulation on the terrace and a general retouching of the finishes.

The most striking part is the cellar, characterized by beautiful columns, vaulted ceilings and floors made of stone slabs.

In a third wing are the old stables, also with vaulted ceilings. In a fourth wing are a large office/living room with a more modern fireplace, a kitchen equipped with an ancient fireplace, a large bedroom and a library with vaulted ceilings and frescoes.
