I gleaned from this (
visit link) website:
"The August Beresheim House is next door to the Dodge House and functions as the orientation center for the Dodge House. It was built in 1899 and used to belong to close associates of General Dodge and his family. There are three floors, although the third floor was roped-off so it is unable to be toured. With a central staircase, bathroom, and four bedrooms – it was definitely spacious for the time period. The original den is now decorated as a child’s playroom, complete with child-size dolls wearing period clothing. There are bathrooms available behind this house."
