The courtyard connecting the main Western-style building and the first and second sections of the Chinese-style townhouse features a drainage well and brick paving. This was once the space where the Xu family entertained guests, enjoyed the cool air, or parked their vehicles. In the 1960s, the corridor pillars were removed to expand the space. From here toward the 'inner hall' that houses the Xu family shrine, one can see the elaborate Western-style decorative elements on the facade of the second section, including intricate floral stucco reliefs, keystone arches, and acanthus leaf extensions from the column capitals, showing the transitional trajectory of architectural aesthetics over time. This area now serves as a service hub with a counter for ticket sales and visitor inquiries. It also offers aiyu jelly in the shape of a Nikon S2 camera, as well as 'Carved Flower Cake' created in collaboration with the century-old 'Zheng Xing Zhen Bakery,' molded after the stucco reliefs on the facade.
