The property dates to the late 15th century, later purchased by the Folliero family and, in the late 16th century, by Prospero Turbolo. Buyed by Giovan Battista Caiafa in the early 18th century, the main building underwent a radical renovation by Domenico Antonio Vaccaro; subject to further expansions in the early 19th century, the property - also known as Villa Maria - disappeared around 1960 to make way for modern residential buildings along the Corso Vittorio Emanuele.
