STATE AND FINISHES
The buildings, all dating back to the late 18th century, have been thoroughly restored in 2011 by using original materials and preserving the original rustic charms of the county houses, which are in excellent condition, welcoming and with typical finishes well preserved.

EXTERIORS
The estate covers a total surface of approximately 171.6 hectares (technically split among three different but neighboring poderi). Of these, over 100 hectares are fenced with four lines of barbwire to keep wild animals out and protect the cattle.
The land is split among arable land (55.0 ha), grazing land (47.6 ha), mixed and coppice woodland (61.0 ha), chestnut grove (5.0 ha) and olive grove (3.0 ha). The olive trees, 400 trees in total, serve as borders between plots of land.
The breeding business, which included in the past horses as well, relies on cows (100 speciments) of the renowned Limousine and Charolais breeds. Other animals bred in the farm include chickens, rabbits, turkeys and ducks.
The country houses are surrounded by a well-maintained garden, where one could easily install gazebos and sunbeds. Right next to the building is also the 15 × 6 m swimming pool, built in reinforced concrete and with a constant depth of 1.6 m.
