The cottage itself isn't bad. The decor, such as it is, doesn't check any boxes for me.

I love the use of wood, however, the top heavy ceilings give me claustrophobia.

I loved most of this wonderful home!  I would love to see a unique solid look coffee table like these from Wayfair; my fav is the bottom one

There is much to appreciate here, but I couldn't be trusted on any of the stairs -- including these.

That top step would get me every time.

@happilyretiredgirl ,  ha, ha, perfect reaction! 

@ECBG ,  your eye for the right touch hasn't failed you--  I love your rustic, yet sophisticated choices for coffee table in that space, much better than the big ottoman there now!

OMgosh, that's exactly what happened to me a couple of weeks ago. A step JUST LIKE THAT got me. I put my foot down to go to the next step but it was only air-where's the rest of the step I thought as I was falling. I landed hard on my butt, not so bad, but then the inertia of the whole thing threw me back and knocked my head against the wall! It wasn't on a landing as in the picture-it was a lower level staircase that turned at the end and it was a  shortened step. The step that wasn't there!!!!
