About This Property

Boston's historic Skinny House (a/k/a the Spite House). According to local legend, two brothers inherited land from their deceased father. While one was away serving in the military during the Civil War, the other built a large home, leaving the soldier only a shred of property. When the soldier returned, he found his inheritance depleted, so he built the narrow house to spite his brother by blocking the sunlight and ruining his view. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Boston history! Although it was built shortly after the Civil War, it has been thoughtfully renovated over the years to maintain its old world charm while adding modern day conveniences. In addition to stunning hardwood floors, the home offers a full kitchen with dishwasher, farmhouse sink, and stainless appliances. There is a washer-dryer and a NEST thermostat system for heat control. The roof deck offers breath-taking views of Boston Harbor and downtown skylines.
