I was so focused on the balconies, I didn't even notice the door height. It looks like there's one level partially underground and a second level with the mystery balconies, but the door doesn't align with either floor.

That’s common enough, you enter on a landing and can go up or down half a flight from there.

I suppose you could make a landing with a ladder so that you could climb up and crawl out the window. Then stand on a deck that has a railing that's too low and wouldn't pass code at all. It's possible I suppose. I've been in a lot of houses that have full height doors on the second floor that open up onto the roof of the three season porch with no option for safety.

What are the odds they just did that to proof themselves from any liability claims and used the material they already had from the floor level railings?

I prefer the term decision house You enter the house and you must choose: downstairs to computer? Or upstairs to fridge?

You'd be happy working on my roof then, when the builder dealt with being bad at fitting roofs by hiring someone competent to build another identical roof over the top.

There are a couple of houses I pass on the way to work that have similar inaccessible balconies. It looks like a lot of houses in the neighborhood were built to the same or similar plans with the balconies above the entrance, but at some point maybe the doors were removed, but the railings were left up instead of putting up an angled roof or something over the door. That house though... unless it were a really short door, I can't imagine it ever having access. Maybe it was built to match nearby houses without really thinking?

That entire channel is about doing things on the cheap. I know he's working with a Huracan but that spirit of it is still how cheaply can I have a bad rear end Huracan.

He also pays to get it professionally painted in the end and then loads it on the back of a trailer, completely unprotected, for like a 600 mile drive or some poo poo.
