My first house... this was the first house we lived in as a young married couple 46 years ago ( it's a couple of miles from here) .. it's a riverside cottage terrace house.. which extends back a long way so at first glance it may look small but it's surprisingly large. Only trouble is that the stairs very steep, so furniture can't get upstairs , the windows have to be removed and the furniture hoisted up and in...

Ours was the 3rd house from the left...

Beautiful setting.
I appreciate the problems with getting the furniture in. My house has the lounge upstairs (biggest room and best view) and getting the sofa in was a real job! I ended up having to remove the lounge door and a section of banister as well as unzipping all the cushions from the sofa. We can't get things in through the window as it is in two sections with a stone division.
Now Mrs. L feels that we should get a new suite, but we would have to measure it very carefully to make sure it could get into the lounge.

I have the same problem with this house .. the foyer is so narrow, that a sofa brought in through the front door, then having to turn right is almost impossible due to the nearness of the Bannister on the stairs.. similar set up to your stairs... but the opposite way around.. so as you say either everything has to be taken apart to get it through the door ( legs off, cushions off).. and it has to be carefully measured... or the other option is to get modular furniture which is what I'm thinking of doing next time.
