In reply to the discussion: Neighbor refuses to grant easement for powerline to new home next door. [View all]Warpy
(113,131 posts)28. Well, it's sort of in keeping with an ugly house across the street
but yes, it's really awful. I can't believe they spent that much money on that, California prices are just plain nuts.
It's hard to say what that moonscape of a too-small yard will look like once they get some ground cover and a few shrubs in. The best suggestion I have for that stark looking house is ivy, a lot of ivy.
And good luck to them getting UPS deliveries there, it looks like they've got two one car garages but absolutely nothing that looks like a main entrance.
It made me grateful for my shabby fixer in a bad area.

I just looked at it online. I'd troll the shit out of anybody who built that lot dominating eyesore.

I agree. The power company doesn't usually need permission to work in an easement.
