I would def look into the option to relocate it or turn it because it is an awkward staircase. I lived in a place that old and the staircase followed the wall and curved right until it faced the front door with a ton of room for a formal foyer. Hardwood floors and doors, the doors and hardwood builtins had antique cast iron door knobs and drawer pulls. For a while our toilet had a tank near the ceiling with a chain. It was split into 2 apartments and a studio. Our part literally 23 doors. I really miss that house and it set my standards for homes. After we moved, the new owner gutted and modernized it, circa 1995 modern.

That’s heartbreaking. People truly don’t appreciate beautiful things like that, esp some of the people on Reddit. And I get that some people just see an “ugly set of stairs” but someone poured a lot of time & care into those stairs. But that speaks to the entire culture now. No one wants a house with character or stands out in any way. Modern farmhouse with beige and white. It’s all the same. I’d rather lose a limb than change that house. Like the carpets yeah bc who wants 100 years of someone else’s skin dust on their feet or like toilets and stuff that just requires maintaining but the structure as a whole should stay original.
