“A straight driveway just isn’t an possibility as a result of it could be steeper than the constructing code permits. Just a few doorways down the highway there lived a pleasant previous couple, who, till just lately, had had a vacant lot subsequent door to them.

“But the lot had sold and the new owner had started construction on a new house. Unfortunately the lot was so steep that the new owner built his driveway partly on the old couple’s land – it was carved out of the hillside with an excavator.”

‘Upset couple thought it was an sincere mistake’

The man continued: “The old guy gave him a call and politely explained the situation, but his new neighbour, whom he’d never even met, was having none of it. He flat-out denied that the driveway crossed the property line, and he was rude enough that the old guy was pretty upset.

“At this level the previous couple weren’t certain what to do. They double-checked the property pins to ensure they had been proper, and naturally they had been, however after additional conversations with the brand new proprietor it was clear he was an unreasonable man who wasn’t going to return to the negotiating desk willingly.”

The story continued on Reddit: “The scenario stewed for some time as development continued on the brand new home, till sooner or later when my pal’s dad noticed the previous couple within the neighbourhood they usually began chatting.

“Of course they told him the story about the new neighbour. Now, my friend’s dad really likes the old couple, who don’t have a mean bone in their bodies, so he was pretty annoyed about the situation, and when he went home he couldn’t get it out of his head.

“That night, after a number of beers, he had an excellent thought. He referred to as up the previous couple, defined his plan, and requested for his or her permission to hold it out.”

Seeing the light-hearted side of it, they said yes to his plan.”They chuckled and gave him the go-ahead,” the poster said.

“So he hopped into the rusty previous full-size pickup he stored as a second automobile and drove it over to the previous couple’s place, the place he parked it throughout the encroaching driveway, ensuring it was totally on their property.”

Unfortunately the put up didn’t touch upon the response and what occurred subsequent.
