The home’s original brick floors on the 1st level were removed during restoration, plumbing was installed under them and the floors were re-laid .Retaining walls, sidesteps and a sidewalk were also installed. Handmade bricks adorn all 9 original coal burning fireplaces which now have gas logs.

A bracketed cornice also adorns the exterior. The primary section of the home has a gable roof and a dormer window above the portico.
