Entrance to the property is through a large featured side gate, stepping into a high walled spacious courtyard, which is suprisingly quiet and sheltered from the adjacent road noise. The lower level of the building is the home for two large apothiki (storage) areas , which would make ideal taverna or kafenion spaces , should the restoration be of a commercial nature or family entertainment, living areas if residential. There are also a number of small utility rooms on the ground floor, many of the original features remaining in the structure. The two upper levels are accessed by a wrap around stone staircase, each level arranged in a similar layout. 4 bedrooms, 1 kitchen area, 1 bathroom and a lounge area.
