Hi all! We are purchasing a fixer-upper 1920 bungalow, and have a bit of a pickle situation with the staircase that goes from the main level to the upper level. The story goes that at some point in the 1940s, the owner had the staircase flipped around so that you enter the staircase while facing the toward the front of the home, while presumably you used to enter the staircase while facing toward the back of the house. The house has always been in the same family, but no one living knows why the person had the staircase flipped— possibly to accommodate an addition on the home. The end result is that the staircase terminates facing a sloped ceiling where you cannot stand, so there is essentially no landing and you must step off the stairs either to the right or to the left. We’d like to move the stairs to fix this issue, but we don’t know what our options are. Would appreciate any thoughts/ideas or guidance on where we could find an original floorplan for this house. Thanks so much!
P.S.
Edited to add more photos as requested 🙂 Also, this group is awesome! I haven't been able to reply to all of the comments yet, but I'm so grateful to you all for sharing your thoughts/advice.

What should I do with this fireplace? It’s so dated!
I hate this fireplace. The tile is so dated and makes it look 90’s or early 2000’s. What should I do? The insert is brand new but that is all that has been updated so far. Please help!!

**I know the TV is too high but I live in a small apartment in the city and this is the only place I can put it **

My sister just built her new house and she has this space in her master bedroom and she's not sure what to do with it other than making it like a makeup/vanity area! Looking for other ideas! 😁

I have this wall space in my entry and have no clue what to do with it. On the left is the pantry to my kitchen and the right is the garage door. The air return is on this wall, so I can’t block it. Need any tips/advice! TIA!

We recently renovated our fireplace and surround and I’m just so thrilled with it. 🤩

I had a hard time deciding on the type of stone as well as as the hearth stones and mortar color because it’s so hard to choose when you’re only looking at samples or pictures.
