During the 2006-07 rehabilitation, a garage was built (there not having been one previously), and the English basement apartment was gutted and rebuilt. Additional rehabilitation work was undertaken in 2019-20, for example: restoring the historic windows, installing new double-hung storm windows on the windows facing 6th St., and restoring the Italianate-style exterior front door surround and the wood cornice above the second story windows. In 2021-22, a new deck was built with steel beams for support and new cedar fencing.
