current state the pseudobaroque house in the historical part of the city is structurally cross three-sectioned in the central part, with two-sectioned sides towards the gable walls. From the staircase, which is located in the axis of the building and oriented towards the courtyard, there is access to the apartment on the landing of the first floor. The space at the entrance, which is now part of the building corridor between both entrances, belonged to the hallway of the original apartment, which occupied the entire western half of the floor.
The right (northern) part of the current layout consists of a hallway, two rooms with windows and a balcony facing north onto the street, a kitchen with a window to the south courtyard, and amenities, pantry, toilet, and storeroom ventilated to the light well. The bathroom located in the courtyard wing is accessible only from the kitchen; it has a window to the courtyard, oriented to the west.
The second part (southern) is accessed from the building corridor on the left; here is a small entryway with a sink, a room with a balcony to the south into the courtyard, and from the room accessible a small area with a bathroom and toilet, the window here is also facing south.
