Drifting out into REO land today I came across another interesting item for my friends on activerain, especially those picky home inspectors that I love, to evaluate.
This is a nice house, actually, and not very old, 4 bedrooms 3 baths, and all the other desirable features that make a house sell. But when I started to enter it I found these steps.
There's no hand rail. The steps don't go far enough across and they are not uniform in size. The middle one is just big enough for a toe or two. The porch is high enough to make it difficult to step up without these doorsteps. But they are very creative and the rock work was proudly done all around the house. I just feel that door steps should be safe. I admit I held onto the side of the wall, which was reachable, as I went in and out of the house.
