The 10-foot-wide home in Boston, often referred to as the city's skinniest house, has an intriguing origin story involving a supposed land dispute between two brothers.
Despite its charming facade, the legend of the house being built out of spite is likely just an urban myth with little substantiation.
The house's sale at $1.25 million in 2021 illustrates how real estate can often be driven by lore and curiosity, even if the story is exaggerated.
Though many local legends seek to explain its origins, the truth about the skinny house remains somewhat elusive, with history and charm as its mainstay.
