It's a little risky to respond without seeing the whole will, but it sounds as if there are two possible outcomes: the house will be disposed of through the "rest and residue" clause of his will; or, the house will not have been disposed of through the will and will pass by intestate succession, in which case the grandchildren will get the property.
