I went to one of my close friends' house.
I don't know why, but for some reasons, the possessive form " friends' " doesn't look okay. Is that all right to say that?
Another example may be " one of my classmates' book."
Thanks for your help.

It should be friend's and classmate's. "one of my...." is singular.
