INTERIORS
Most of the house had the original push button controls for lighting , typical for the time period , so the Newnams added dimmers and updated the light fixtures . Many of the original single-bulb sconces were replaced with larger fixtures , but the orginal ones were preserved and moved to the back staircases .
There are two original-to-the-home firehoses . When built , the fireplaces and massive boiler in the basement posed a potential fire risk ; the house did have a fire in the 1990s .
