In 1850, the house was expanded to include additional living spaces and bedrooms, and a granite driveway was installed and remains to this day. In 1888, the house was converted from Greek Revival style to French Victorian, and further expansion included the butler's pantry, kitchen, bathrooms, stained glass windows shipped from Germany, and a wrap-around porch. Next to the home is a Studio Cottage with bedroom/lounge and bathroom. Adjacent to the beautiful Chapel Garden, standalone restrooms were added in 2008, further increasing the function and capacity of the facility. The stunning 6,500 sq. ft.
