Boston’s famous Skinny House has sold for wicked big price.
The famous home located in the city’s North End went on the market back in August for $1.2 million, and the deal was closed Thursday for $1.25 million, according to Zillow.
The home “received multiple offers and went under agreement for over list price in less than one week,” real estate agency CL Properties.
According to local legend, the four-story home was built out of spite back in 1862 after two brothers inherited some land. When one of them joined the Army, the other built a large house that took up most of the land. When the soldier brother returned home, he built the Skinny House to block his brother’s view and sunlight.
