The Back Staircase

I'm not sure what it is,
 but I have always loved the idea of having a 

back staircase into the kitchen.

  Something about it just seems so sweet and quaint.

I can just imagine wandering down those steps in my bathrobe
 to make coffee in the morning, can't you?

The kitchen above is from the movie Stepmom.

You can see the back staircase in the background and notice

how the staircase turns for the last few steps as you enter the kitchen.  

 I love this kitchen and the entire house, actually. 

{This is one of my all time favorite movies ~ you must see it if you haven't already!}

If it's a winding staircase, then my heart really goes pitter-patter!

This last one is more modern, but lovely just the same.

My Grandmother lived in a farmhouse with a staircase into the kitchen.

I can remember it so vividly ~ I just loved that!

Do you have a back staircase or any memories of one?

I would love to hear about it!
