It's not uncommon for warring neighbors to erect fences or cut down trees just to get on each other's nerves.

But what happens when someone has enough time, money, and malice to use construction as revenge?

Coming up are some of the pettiest homeowners who took vengeance to the next level.

You're listening. You're listening. You're listening.

You're listening.

You're to be amazed.

In Newport, Massachusetts, there is a quaint little house with baby pink paint work, an adorable chimney,

and a generous conservatory, and it is easy to think that this home was a total labor of love.

You'd be wrong, though, because the Plum Island Pink House was born out of pure hatred.

Divorce is rarely pretty, and both parties don't always get what they want, but one woman

got more than she bargained for during a particularly nasty settlement in 1925. The story goes that the

woman in question agreed to sign the divorce papers on one condition, that her husband built her a

replica of their current home.

Her husband obliged happily, realizing that his soon-to-be ex-wife had forgotten to specify exactly

where the house should be, which presented an irresistible revenge opportunity. He fulfilled his

ex-wife's wish, and a replica of her beloved home was

painstakingly created, but it was plunked in the middle of the desolate marshland of Plum Island.

Not only was the house completely isolated from everyone and everything, but her ex-husband

dished out an extra scoop of revenge by hooking the plumbing up to water saltier than he was.

Unsurprisingly, the unfortunate woman never moved in, which was probably for the best,

considering how much asbestos lead paint and radon it contained.

Arguably, the dangers of such things weren't known back then, but I like to think it was all in the name of good old spite.
