Byers-Evans House Museum by OlenaKyiv
The house in contrast to other old houses of those years does not have simple rectangular shape, it is outstanding with its wings. We assumed it was build in simple way, but then went through several changes and additions. Our assumption was correct. After Evans bought the house, they began to build additions to it. As a result house had got
larger front room, dining room
a library,
and another entrance (the one which comes out to 13th street).
Overall house was built from bricks and has marvelous woodwork inside. Downstairs it has living room (or musical room), a large library, 2 parlors, dining room, and kitchen, upstairs: 5 bedrooms, 1 sitting room and a sun room.
Also in 1950 the elevator was built, that now still works (we didn't see it in work, but our guide assured us about it).
