There are two entrances: the main and original one which leads, through an imposing iron gate, into the majestic cypress tree-lined avenue which leads to the garden with plants and ornamental tubs; the garden was designed by the well-known English architect Cecil Pinsent who gave it the characteristics of a real park, with roses, tall trees and symmetrical flowerbeds. From here, a staircase with a double opposing flight leads to the entrance of the villa, whose main body covers a total area of 2,800 sqmt ( 30.138,95 sqft), and is made up of three floors above ground and a basement. On the ground floor, from the loggia at the entrance, we find the large entrance hall, five lounges, a dining room, a corridor-hallway, kitchen, service entrance, two bathrooms, a storage room and a technical room.

Among the annexes we find three structures used as an orangery, greenhouse, garage or technical rooms, as well as the caretaker's house and various buildings for agricultural use. The current appearance of this magnificent property, with the front surmounted by an elegant clock, was commissioned by Marchesa Nathalie Antinori at the beginning of the twentieth century, who made use of the work of her brother, the architect Egisto Paolo Fabbri, for the important restoration works, a well-known Cézanne collector.
