Boston's Famous 'Skinny House' In The North End Sells For $1.25 Million
BOSTON (CBS) -- Boston's famous "skinny house" in the North End has sold for $1.25 million.
"44 Hull Street received multiple offers and went under agreement for over list price in less than one week," CL Properties said.
The home is just over 1,100 square feet – but it's only 10 feet wide.
It has two bedrooms and one bathroom. There's also a private garden and roof deck.
The story of the unique building, called a "spite house," dates back to when a man returned home from the Civil War and learned his brother had taken the property. So the man built the tiny house to block sunlight from his brother's home.
