Adjacent to this property, with direct access from the villa, stands the high tower dating from 1260 with its 5 floors, measuring in total approx 200 sqm. On the ground floor are the garage and a storage room.

The property features a double garden that runs on the two parallel sides of the villa. One of the two gardens has direct access from the alley leading to the garage. The entire garden is fully fenced.

The villa part is in habitable condition, but needs modernisation work. The tower needs complete restoration. The utilities are all present and working.
