TO preposition

Question

"I came home tonight "TO" one of your LED streetlight in front of my home. This daytime-like light is super bright and fills my house with unnecessary light at night."

I dont understand what The preposition TO means there in terms of the context.

1) I would really appreciate it if you could paraphrase the "first sentence"?

2) Isnt there supposed to be a S (plural) at the end of the word streetlight ?

Thank you so much

I wish you would not monkey with the original sentence. Just reproduce it as it is given, without your gratuitous punctuation.
