The first addition to this nucleus was carried out in 1850, when an opening was created on the east side of one of the cellars. Stalls were built with vaulted ceilings and arched partions, the uncovered ceiling still allows us to see the original structure (Billiard room "sala del biliardo") and a hayloft on the floor above.

A few years later (around 1890), the large hayloft was added, just south of the main building, the top floor was used for storing hay and grain (“Vineria”) and the lower floor was used for storing carts and agricultural tools.

At the end of the 1800’s another stall was built onto the west side of the 15th century cellars. In this room are the remainders of an affresco dedicated to Saint Anthony, protector of farmyard animals (Saint Anthony room "la sala di S. Antonio"). This room, above which is another hayloft of which we can still see the staircase, was built with second hand materials and its asymmetry is very evident, iron beams, stone columns and only one capital.
One thing still very visible in the “Taverna Del Parco” is the filling in with bricks to sustain the barrel vault after inserting a new opening to the stalls.

During a maintenance operation an antique stone well was discovered under the south facing portico. In a wonderful state of conservation, it is visible in the small room created by the partial closing off of the portico (Well Room "la sala del pozzo").
