Easement - Stair Planning And Design

The easement is the measurement from your house perimeter to the property lines, surrounding your home. In the picture below, the wood fence on the right is sitting directly on top of the property line that separates each homeowner's property.

What kind of problems could you expect from property easements and stairway construction?

Sometimes, exterior stairways could protrude into these easements. If you're planning on building a large deck on the outside of your home, make sure that your stairs, aren't located in these areas.

If you're planning on designing a house, room addition or exterior deck with a stairway, you should be aware of your property easements.
