Is house' directions a correct grammar?

The apostrophe floating on its own at the end of a word is not usually correct in the singular form, and it is certainly incorrect in "house' directions". Write instead "house directions". If the plural is required, the apostrophe at the end of a word is correct. For example, when seeking the directions to a group of houses, it is correct (though somewhat awkward) to write houses' directions.

Why in this sentence you use an apostrophe The Robinson's house is on spring street but our's is on Randolph Drive?

An apostrophe is used to show possession: the house belongs to the Robinsons; therefore, it is the Robinsons's house. Our house (or ours - no apostrophe) is on Randolph Drive. Randolph is the name of the drive; it doesn't belong to anybody in this sentence. Of course, the sentence should be:"The Robinsons' house is on Spring Street but ours is on Randolph Drive" as "ours" is a possessive but is an exception. Unfortunately the Wiki spell checker doesn't know the correct usage either. Sigh.
