description
On the left is the entrance with a skylight shaped as a lancet triple window . In the original state before the expansion , the facade was divided into three axes , the right side axis was taken up by a bay window with a balcony above . Above it rose a gable with a steep hip roof.
The utility rooms in the basement were connected to the dining room on the ground floor by a sideboard . The side rooms are grouped around a small atrium through all floors. As a result, the street and garden fronts could only be used for living spaces.
According to a contemporary source, the house was particularly richly decorated due to the financial strength of the client.
