FLOOR PLANS OF THE TOWER An annex (100 sqm - 1,076 sqft) is currently used as a warehouse but could be easily converted into another residential unit. The original watchtower was built between the 10th and the 11th century as part of a defensive system ordered by the Della Corgna family of Perugia. Year after year, the watchtower was enlarged with new sections and in the 18th century it acquired its current shape, hiding the whole tower inside. The building was recently restored with extreme care, keeping the look of the building unchanged and implementing luxury finishes. The stone walls have been cleaned and brought back to its original splendor, wooden beams have been cleaned and valorized as well as the original terracotta floors. Stone vaults have been recovered and are the most beautiful embellishment of the structure.
