My getaway home in New Mexico which I have had for 31 years is a two storey townhome. When I go over there it takes me a few days to adjust to going up and down the stairs. Coming down is more difficult than going up especially as the tread depth is pretty short. The railing is thankfully sturdy and well-placed. I can see the day coming where negotiating stairs may become too difficult. I definitely would not build a two storey house in which to reside anymore.

Anyone else recall this song? George Jones & Tammy Wynette - Two Story House - YouTube
