On the entrance-floor are morning and dining rooms, and lounge, with a wide staircase-hall.

On the first floor are drawing-room and boudoir, 33 ft. by 20 ft. and 20 ft. by 18 ft. respectively. The upper floors contain the bed and dressing rooms, and the basement a suite of four servants’ rooms, with offices. There are two staircases, five water-closets, and two bath- rooms. The facings are of hard bright red bricks, the dressings and bays of white stone. The style is North German Renaissance.
