Beneath the landing a large closet with a window is placed and 
a small closet for overshoes is beneath the first flight. The

paper. Tiles in the upper corners of the facing bear the family coat of

panes are painted black, which enhances the brilliancy of the glass. There is a rough stone fireplace on the porch
