Update, July 5, 2016: If this were your average house, it would certainly be impractical. The garage and the driveway are nowhere near each other, and what potential buyers would want to use the garage purely for storage and keep their car in the driveway? But, it turns out, this is not your average house.

This house is actually a builder's model home created by Epcon Communities. According to Nanette Overly, the Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Epcon Communities, it is common for model homes like this one to not have a driveway that leads to the garage. Instead, a concrete pad that provides easy access to the home for potential buyers and realtors is used. Once its life as a model home is complete, a driveway from the street to the garage will be poured and the concrete pad will be removed.

Original, June 28, 2016: Although we love highlighting some of the best homes across the country, every once in awhile we come across a real doozy of a house that leaves us scratching our heads.

Case in point: At first glance, this house in Clemmons, North Carolina, seems pretty normal — but it has one major design flaw. Can you see it?

Upon closer inspection you'll see the nonfunctional placement of the garage — it's nowhere near the driveway. In order to get your car into the garage, you'd have to drive over the curb, across the walkway and over the lawn.

This error essentially makes the home worthless, real estate agent and cohost of Million Dollar Listing Josh Flagg told Inside Edition. "I would tear it down," he explained. "No one would ever build a home that way. It makes no sense."

Although it's not an ugly house, it's certainly impractical. We suppose you could use the garage purely for storage and keep your car in the driveway, but that's not going to be a selling point with potential buyers.
