Covering outside basement stairs
These stairs are the only access to the basement for laundry and storage. I'm in New England, so it's going to be covered in ice and snow come winter. I'm going to be living here myself and eventually renting it out down the road and want to hire someone to build a solution.
What's the cleverest/most affordable way to improve this? I don't think I can afford a full addition to the house. Three season porch? carport type roof on poles? Thanks for any help!
