Magpatuloy sa iyong sariling pribadong pasukan sa antas ng lupa at tamasahin ang kaginhawahan ng isang maluwag na foyer, na dumadaloy ng maayos patungo sa living area na nakaharap sa timog. Ang mga hardwood na sahig ay nagpapahusay sa magarbong orihinal na mga detalye sa buong bahay, kabilang ang maganda at maayos na mga dekoratibong moldings at orihinal na mga fireplace na gawa sa marmol.

Iwasan ang grocery store at tamasahin ang kanlurang sinag ng araw habang inaalagaan ang iyong mga pananim na prutas at gulay. Ang bintanang banyo ay lalong nagpapahusay sa makasaysayang alindog ng tahanan, na nagtatampok ng clawfoot soaking tub, nakalantad na ladrilyo, at pedestal sink.

Habang umaakyat ka sa mahusay na inukit na naka-curve na wooden staircase, karagdagang alindog at katahimikan ang naghihintay sa parlor floor, na may 10 talampakang kisame, mga bagong hardwood na sahig, at isang talagang kahanga-hangang pangunahing silid-tulugan, na may dekoratibong fireplace at katabing laundry room, na nagiging malaking walk-in closet. Ang mga orihinal na pocket door ay naghihiwalay sa pangunahing silid mula sa pangalawang silid-tulugan, o opisina sa bahay, na may marangal na crown mouldings at isang karagdagang dekoratibong fireplace na gawa sa marmol. Mag-inom ng kape o tsaa sa umaga at tamasahin ang mapayapang tanawin sa timog sa ibabaw ng mga puno ng 12th Street.
