📋 About This Mod
— Description —
This little and simple mod helps bring immersion and sturdiness to the Farmhouse interior stairs, making them much safer with actual split log steps and hand railings!
How do the older Jarls, their spouses, and the advisors go up and down those vanilla ladder steps!
Turns out that a safety inspection has visited Skyrim’s villages finally! :)
— Two versions available —
Lux / ELFX version (split meshes)
Vanilla version
— Where you’ll see this change —
Inside the Jarl Longhouses: you’ll now see an actual staircase with split log steps and studier railings. The wooden spindles have also been refined. The top handrail is now smooth across - which looks regal now and less rudimentary than vanilla. Looks like a professional woodworker did it now.
Inside some normal farmhouses you’ll see the staircase, which now has the split log steps. It also looks much sturdier.
— Compatibility —
This mod should be compatible with everything. This is simply a mesh replacer and follows the vanilla footprint exactly. NPCs walk up and down the steps with no issue.
Completely safe to add or remove this mod mid-game, as it’s simply a mesh replacer.

Thank you! And hope you enjoy!

💡 Beginner Tips
