NEW: Grandfather says he "regrets it a bit" now that a highway was built around his house after he turned down $220,000 to move.
Huang Ping of Jinxi, China, who lives with his grandson, now lives in the middle of a soon-to-be busy road.
To access his home, Ping has to travel through a large pipe to get to his front door.
"If I could turn back time, I would agree to the demolition conditions they offered. Now it feels like I lost a big bet. I regret it a bit," he said.
Ping says his house sometimes vibrates from the ongoing work.
The homeowner's roof is almost level with two lanes of the road.
His house is also now a tourist attraction.
