The Walker Family kept several horses in the Coach House until the last was sold in the 1940s. There were bridle paths throughout the property. Mr. Walker and neighborhood teens exercised the horses regularly, both on the property and on trips to Waukesha County.

The Chicken Coop is a small building just behind the Coach House. It is now used for storage. It also contains a bathroom, one of seven on the property.

In 1995, the 19th Century Schoolhouse was constructed on the second floor of the Coach House. It is used as part of the Wauwatosa School District's second grade history curriculum. Read more about the Schoolhouse here.
