The villa is a medieval building, later enlarged and remodeled especially outside. The access is directly from the Viale di Cart. The front garden is divided into two large flower beds. In the back of the grassy area is bounded oratory. The façade is quite simple with a stone staircase, flanked by two symmetrical doors communicating with the ground floor, leading to the main entrance preceded by a small terrace. The simple portal, flanked by two tall windows and further by two slightly projecting balconies, culminate with a simplified entablature in stone that supports the balcony of the upper opening. The villa is distinguished by the large central hall, or atrium entrance, marked by two rows of two columns with ionic capitals, almost clinging to the north and south walls.
