Trying to finish the attic area this weekend, I was thinking about using these foldable stairs by Alessio Miniatures but I think the ceiling height might be too short... they will end up being barely visible when folded (the roof will fit into that gable frame). What do you think?

But you will know they are there and you will be able to point them out to viewers. I always like houses that have layers to discover even after the first, second or even third look. :) 

I think they are fabulous. You should add them

I love these stairs, and I've wanted to see a house that uses them.  :)  Will you be able to reach in and unfold them, and demonstrate them to people who are viewing the house?  That would be really fabulous.

The stairs unfold by pulling down the door, it has a metal chain. I would love to use them but after dry testing the roof again I realized they would be practically hidden and also obstruct the view of the attic... so if you would peek in, you won't be able to see the window or any objects behind it... I felt it is kind of a waste for such a nice piece, and I would like to decorate the attic a bit.. :(

This is the second house I end up not using these stairs on, I got them originally for the Fairfield before I decided to add a second steping staircase.. they are really awsome, sadly they don't work very well with this house. I'll save them in my stash for a future build I guess, perhaps I'll make a simple trapdoor for access later...
