here are some of the oddest houses we've
ever seen
check out this icy pad in upstate New
York in the late winter of 2017 the
lakefront home in Webster New York was
completely encased in ice it almost
doesn't seem real people thought I
sprayed foam on it not the case
John Cutco shared these images with
Inside Edition this in some spots is
five six inches thick which is amazing
considering that six days ago this was
not here it was mild though it's not
here how cold are your hands right now
they are cold the air temperature thinks
14 degrees wind chill probably around
zero BRR and from the iciest to one of
the most poorly designed and you spot
the issue with this construction the
driveway is paved but leads right to the
whoops the garage is on the other side
of the house to park the car there you'd
have to drive over the curb and then
over the lawn not ideal inside edition's
showed the house to real estate agent
Josh Flagg who said I would tear it down
nobody would ever build a home that way
I mean it makes no sense there's got to
be a reason this family of six traded
their old house for a converted School
Bus the Mays family and their bus live
in Redding California they managed to
make all 250 square feet work the kids
do their homework on TV trays in the
living room
this is the kitchen it's got a sink
stove and a fridge but not a lot of
space for groceries we can only ever
have a half gallon of milk some of the
cooking happens inside but they do their
fair share of grilling this right here
is the bathroom the kitchen sink does a
double duty as a bathing area for the
couple's youngest child in the rear of
the bus two bedrooms
your bunks on the side two on each side
Gabriel and Debbie's bedroom doubles as
the closet on either side we have
storage and this is where Gabriel and
nice clothes go
the couple's kids say their friends
can't believe it here's another house on
the move the mansion was so beloved by
its owner that he up and moved it to a
new location
the 4,000 square foot house was
transported up the river on a barge
what crazy person floats the house up
the river owner Cristian Neely is that
crazy person he bought the 1760 house
and transplanted it to a new location 50
miles away the process took some serious
organizational skills first roads had to
be closed not every day you see a 250
year old house
roll through town then the house was
loaded onto the barge for the trip up
the Chesapeake Bay it took 19 days and a
million dollars that's twice as much as
the house cost to buy but here it is
back on dry land
inside edition's Allison Hall got a tour
let's go check it out well how the
moving house what is so special about
this house it is a piece of American
history the craftsmanship and the level
of effort that went into building these
homes is something we just don't see
anymore it's the original 1760 staircase
winds up all three floors and now the
house has a waterfront view will you be
ever moving this house again no no never
ever ever historic to pre historic sort
of this suburban San Francisco home
looks like a page right out of history
it's round features dinosaurs a friendly
cavemen waving hello and a welcome
yabba-dabba-do sign it's a tribute to
this classic cartoon family but the
colorful home is the subject of a legal
wrangle between its owner and the town
of Hillsboro they do not want to be
known as bedrock USA they'd like to be
known as Hillsboro USA the town's
attorney says the houses statue and
landscaping award required design review
and building permits which the owner did
not have when the features were
installed most town residents that I've
talked to feel like this entire
installation is far out of character for
the town of Hillsboro and they worry
that if it's allowed to go on here maybe
somebody else will want to put up a
Jetsons or Star Wars installation
elsewhere in the town that everybody's
going to have to look at all the time
meanwhile the owner and her attorney are
fighting to keep these dinosaurs from
going extinct
and this colorful California House also
came under fire from neighbors look at
those bright yellow emojis over a hot
pink background it doesn't look much
like the other houses on the block in
Manhattan Beach California the owner
Catherine Kidd told the inside edition's
Jim Marais she
painted the house to cheer up her
neighborhood the emoji house is positive
it's happy and I think it's great
some neighbors disagree she was mad that
she got caught cheating the feud erupted
after the owner started renting out the
house on Airbnb that's against the law
in Manhattan Beach and her neighbors
reported her she was ordered to pay a
four thousand dollar fine soon after
that she hired the artist to paint the
emojis was she's seeking revenge
that's what the artist who painted the
emojis seemed to suggest Inside Edition
found this now deleted Instagram caption
are your neighbors constantly ratting
you out and they cost you thousands and
fines have you wanted to tell them off
lately why risk a case when you can hire
me to paint them a pretty message it is
clearly a message of shut up your
neighbors say you did this just to spite
them what are you saying I said now this
was all about making building hoodie and
colorful kids neighbors went to their
City Council to address the situation
only thing is the paint job is totally
legal
City Hall issued this statement the
city's municipal code does not prohibit
paintings murals etc on residential
structures just go away
and mind your own business and get over
act and then there's this families
arrangement we probably have the most
organized and neatest home in America
Alejandra Costello and her husband Edie
keep their Virginia home with military
precision from her pantry to her clothes
closet all my clothes are sorted by
category and then that we're going to my
color ever since I was a kid
you know as young as I remember I've
been organizing my bedroom every time
we'd go to the grocery store we'd come
back and I would call the pantry I would
say I'm organizing the pantry Alejandra
even turned her organized life into a
digital show my husband mentioned a
comment he was like you love to do this
and I was like wow people do this for a
living but don't worry these Nate breaks
are it perfect our house it does get
messy at times and there's there's days
when dishes will sit in the sink
overnight this is Inside Edition calm
