With new windows added to the back of the house, the dining room now receives more sunlight than in the past. Most of the other improvements were either mechanical or cosmetic.
Once the warren of bedrooms was cleared out, the floor plan became more attuned to modern living, though still true to its Foursquare geometry and modest scale of the architecture.
The front stairway is a mix of mostly old components: the heart-pine treads from a dealer in South Georgia, the posts from a local salvage store. The oak fireplace mantel was stripped, stained, and trimmed with tile saved from other fireplaces in the house.
