On the second floor there are six bedrooms and five baths and on the third floor there are four bedrooms and two baths. Remodeling and modernization planned will include the construction of a new entrance with removal of the porte cochere, rearrangement of the floor plan, elimination of some of the chimneys and re-stuccoing of the outside surface. Also contemplated is the tearing down of the 10-car garage and squash court on another section of the estate and the construction of a three-car garage as part of the main house."
