I'm not surprised by such things.

Things like one, two or tree steps inside a house are not uncommon, and 
some times intentional. I've also seen floors showing rather steep 
slopes, with very notable curves, and even un-planed waves about 60cm 
deep by 3~4m long (in a school built in the 60's)...

someone in my family who lived there for about 90 years. The ground 
settled unevenly.
