The bathroom was built after the new hydroelectric plant was constructed at Lake Sequoyah. Water could now be fetched from a faucet instead of hauling a pail from the well. The new bathroom also rendered obsolete the chamber pots, slop jars, and foot tubs that were normally stored in each of the bedrooms. Benefiting from the convenience of electricity, the iron-bracketed kerosene lamps on the walls of the house were replaced by incandescent lights hung from the ceilings.

Amelia's Room, named after Amelia Wright Bryson, was born in this room over 90 years ago.

The Victorian furniture in Amelia's Room belonged to Miss Susan "Tudie" Rice, who claimed to have worked for the author Thomas Wolfe (not yet documented) and, after his death, was given a bedroom suite.

The Dining Room has seen very few changes. It has still has its original wallpaper, and a small framed section of the wall reveals the lath and butcher paper that served as backing.
