The ground-plan of the building is an almost rectangular parallelogram (11.50 x 5.50 m). An elaborate construction, it had three levels, with a four-sided wooden-framed and tiled roof.
Access to the first level is through an arched door, while to the second it is by a more modern stone stairway from the main entrance. The initial access would have been achieved by a wooden drawbridge, which gave onto a free-standing set of stone steps positioned just a short distance from the building. This no longer survives due to the opening of a public road through the courtyard that used to belong to the tower-house. In the south part of the open space is located a fountain of post-Byzantine date, more recently restructured.
Inside the tower, the first storey is a single space, with a vaulted ceiling. On the second and third levels, the comparable space is divided by a central corridor. The floor and ceiling at this level are wooden, while the partitions are of laths. There is a fireplace on the third level.
Openings in the walls are mainly sited at the second and third levels, whilst in the first only one small one is located on the north-east side. The openings in the second and third levels are probably of later insertion: their large size is not compatible with the defensive character of the building. The original openings would have been smaller and fewer in number. At the third level, in the middle of south-east side, there is a machicolation opening, of which only the two stone corbels survive.
Of the defensive elements of the building, apart from the machicolation and the moveable access bridge, two bartizans set at the corners of the south-east side and another in the centre of the northwest side of the third level should also be included. In these, which protected the sides of the structure, rows of gun-loops were opened both in their sides and floor. Gun-loops are equally scattered about wall-faces of the second and third storeys of the building.
The wall-masonry consists of small stones, slightly dressed, and mortar, while in the edges of the sides of the tower larger and squared stones can be found.
