That homeowner is someone I'd like to meet. Imagine all the people telling them they're crazy, and yet they did it anyway. The way you've chosen to photograph it kind of makes me laugh. You could have gotten fancy with the composition or something, but no, you chose straight on, no frills. For this challenge, it's almost like you were saying, "Here's this really weird house, nuff said!" There is no argument in the slightest that, indeed, something is not quite right here.

Very cool! We had a similar (but MUCH smaller) tree in our house.

Can't wait to read more about this - can't think of any plausable explanation - 8.

You haven't heard? This is the new green model home. They don't chop down trees, they just build around them. Works well to keep the home in place during hurricanes or tornados. Cool stuff. 7

A tree growing through a house is always something that isn't right and this certainly matches the challenge subject. Should be a top ten image if not a ribbon winner. Well done.

Great title. There was a house with a tree in the middle in my childhood neighborhood. Always thought it was pretty neat.
