I'm pretty sure in Australia you aren't allowed to call a windowless room a bedroom, I'm a little surprised that isn't the rules in the US too.

Oh no it is the rule. It should have a window that has a sill height no higher than 44" and 5.7 SF with specific height and width minimums.

It may also require access from a common space, a closet, and a smoke alarm in the room.

Why hasn't anybody noticed that there's just a missing door on the floorplan, you can see it in the living room shot with the TV.
Here I fixed it.

I'm betting the fence structure is a make-shift shed for the pool equipment. I'm guessing the original floor plan was more like this and the wall with the Red X was probably open to that hallway. Why the hell they would build an addition this way , I have no idea.



Oh, looking at the Zillow pictures, that Red X IS a door after all, they just have an inaccurate floor plan.

This reminded me of that brief trend of painting teddy bears. Or maybe it was brushing them with glue. Either way it was awful.

While it's reassuring that the answer to "why the hell would anyone lay a house out like this" was "they wouldn't" it is also a little disappointing.

Story was, the owner got a permit to build the garage onto the house & through magical thinking, assumed that PSE&G would just...move their pole.

I'm not sure what the problem is. You could access both doors and still park a full size motorhome on that driveway with a half court of basketball to spare.

I'll get another photo tomorrow. From this angle it looks a lot deeper than it actually is.

Yes, it's not eight feet from the door - more like 25-feet.

Can you park four cars here? Yes, but two of them ain't going anywhere, and god hep you if you're in a hurry and forget that there is a pole blocking half of your driveway.

I love how there's both a huge slice of space taken out of the center AND then a pointless jutting-out on the right.

Maybe if you hadn't hacked out a chunk you'd have had that space without that ugly-rear end protrusion!

That's split level design. Look at the patio doors, then the windows to the left. This was someone's cute way of getting "5 stories" inside while probably scraping their zoning's maximum height.

I bet the previous owner ran a siding company.

Someone I know bought a similar house. The previous family lived there for 30 years, made three additions, without disturbing the rest of the house. You can tell exactly where they are, even in the dark.

And the fascia. This is a dictionary definition of the result of nailing too hard & pinning the siding against the sheathing so it can’t ride back & forth with thermal expansion/contraction.

For the fascia, the nail holes need to be wallowed out a bit.

A tree fell on that house and instead of fixing the broken roof beam they just patched up the holes.
