Formalna blagovaonica može udobno ugostiti veliko društvo za večeru, uz zapadnu orijentaciju i pogled na otvoreni grad. Svijetla kuhinja s prozorom ima originalni plinski štednjak Magic Chef u vintage stilu te se po želji može prilagoditi potrebama novog vlasnika. Golemo ulazno predvorje ostavlja izvrstan prvi dojam pri dočeku gostiju, a ima i tri iznimno velika ugradbena ormara. Sve četiri spavaće sobe vrlo su svijetle i prostrane, s obiljem prostora za pohranu, a svaka ima vlastitu kupaonicu. Tri spavaće sobe pružaju prekrasan pogled na rijeku, dok četvrta nudi pogled na otvoreni grad. Sve kupaonice s prozorima očuvane su u izvornom, ali dobrom stanju, a dvije su uređene u sustavu Jack and Jill.
