The entry hall is small but elegant. It showcases a Renaissance Revival hall tree that dates back to 1855. The tree was a gift from the wife's father to Dr. Harvey Green Johnston. Beside the stairway, there is a walnut table crafted by local cabinetmaker Harvey Niday in the 1950s. The light fixture, installed during a restoration, is from around 1900. The door beneath the stairs used to lead to a closet but was later converted to access the cellar stairs.

The stairway is a beautiful piece of architecture, with original pine treads that were later overlaid with oak in the 1920s. The stairway leads to a landing where a bathroom was added in the early 20th century. The bathroom was remodeled in the 1940s with a vanity installed in the 1970s. The restoration team removed another 20th-century bathroom on the ground floor. At the top of the stairs is an unfinished attic, currently being used for storage.
