Is the house occupied, or is it a museum? What sorts of things fill it now? What sorts of people have spent their lives there?

They used to build the upper levels larger, hence the overhang as it goes up, to prevent paying more taxes. They were only responsible to pay the taxes on the ground floor square-footage. F- the Man!
