In 1867, a wooden extension was built for the residence of St. Theophan above the stone prosphora building, which was soon faced with brick and plastered. The saint's cells housed an extensive library, but the furnishings were quite modest: wooden walls, simple, partly handmade furniture, boxes with tools, paints and brushes, icons, many of which were created by St. Theophan the Recluse himself. To achieve complete solitude, in 1872, the bishop arranged a home church in his cells in honor of the Epiphany. Everything in it, from the altar and the sacrificial table to the icons and iconostasis, was made and painted by the saint himself. In this church, Theophan conducted morning prayers and liturgies, usually in silence, but sometimes he sang and read. After his death, services in the Epiphany Church were held only during visits to the Vyshensky monastery by high-ranking guests. During the period of persecution against the church, the building where the saint's cells and the home church were located was first used as a ward for unruly patients of a psychiatric hospital, and later as a ward for tuberculosis patients. As a result, nothing of the interior decoration and furnishings survived. Now, thanks to the efforts of the sisters of the monastery, the Theophan building has been restored, and the furnishings of the cells and the home Epiphany church have been recreated.
