* Ground floor: main entrance, cellar, and a fully equipped gym
* First floor: kitchen (approx. 27 sqm), grand salon and dining room (approx. 57 sqm), guest bathroom, and reception area opening onto both an internal courtyard and a rear garden with terrace
* Second floor: large double bedroom with spacious bathroom, a living room, and an additional bedroom with bathroom
* Third floor: generous double suite with bathroom, living room, library, further sitting room, and an additional double bedroom with en suite bathroom. A wooden spiral staircase leads from the library to another sitting room with a ტერace overlooking the southern part of the estate and Lake Garda

The castle is directly connected to the villa via an ancient marble staircase adorned with a wisteria-covered pergola. It also adjoins a consecrated church dating back to the 12th century, forming the oldest and most historic part of the estate.
