The fortified farmhouse is a two-storey building with a square base and 8 m high, with a garden, chapel and millstone; the whole is placed in the center of a vast agricultural area. On the ground floor there are two entrances: the main one is surmounted by a coat of arms; there are three rooms. On the back from a door you enter other rooms used as warehouses or stables and here there is a hearth. An external staircase leads to the upper floor, with 4 rooms, rich in frescoes. Externally there is also a garden and a small church (of Santa Maria dell'Isola) with a bell gable: it has a single nave with barrel vaults, there are traces of stucco on the walls; at the bottom of the west wall is the almost destroyed altar. The name is thought to derive from an inscription placed on the main entrance which reads "Villa Fraca"».
