Same here. My stairs seemed to be an afterthought meant to squeeze in where it shouldn’t, built by someone who shouldn’t even been allowed to hold a hammer. I have size 13 feet, they hang several inches over the step when I use them. I’ve went down those stairs faster than intended a few times now. The basement stairs were even worse, but they’ve been replaced now.
Ya old houses can be… interesting to say the least lol! The last person that owned this place died on the living room floor about 4 feet where I’m sitting right now. Bonus is I got new flooring out of the deal.
I’m actually slightly surprised it wasn’t the stairs that finished him off.
I mean, did the seller specifically tell you it wasn’t caused by the stairs? They might have just managed to drag themself to the living room before expiring!
My house is over 100 years old and all the damn stairs are different.
What part of the world? The house I grew up in is 110 years old and all the steps are even. Central Europe.

This is all so relatable lol… Oh well, have a spooky house with lots of quirks, so can’t really complain.

Lol well the official cause I believe was a heart attack, but you never know for sure…
