What the heck ? I would not live there simply because the neighbourhood entails a " It gets flooded here during the rainy season " scenario. Does it ?

If your Benz is an ML 350, it might just get in without touching down.
I wish my driveway was as smooth as that!!
Great photo!!
They probably built the house on soft ground and are expecting some settling.

Hmm, which of your MBs are you referring to? It really does make a difference...

Did they disclose, "No Sports Cars"? I have never seen a driveway like that and I live in the hills.

Here in Orinda there are lot of driveways that will scratch your bumper. Once have seen Goodwill truck hanging on front wheels and rear frame with drive axle off the ground. But all the driveways I've seen have landing platform at the door.
I wonder if they have warning signs on the door inner side?
I think they should.
