The spiral staircase The Parlor Solid walnut and cherry woodwork was hand-made from trees found on the property. Wood above the library windows was brought from Baltimore, Maryland.
Every floor has wide pine-board floors, even the ball room on the second floor.
The house has imported Dutch tiles around the fireplaces. Most of the wallpaper is original. Many of the furnishings belonged to the families that lived there or to their relatives. This photo of the library shows samples of the woodwork and furnishings. They were recently opened for public tours.
