front stairs
Main entrance ascent
Front stairs are the main staircase in a house, typically located near the entrance and intended for family members and guests.
The term distinguishes these from back stairs or servants' stairs in larger homes, which were historically used by household staff to move through the house discreetly.
The guests were shown up the front stairs to the drawing room.
