When there is continuity, change is gradual - one thing evolves naturally into the next. In the case of 27 Houghton Street there has been continuity of ownership - 3 generations in fact - and the house has evolved gradually to meet the needs of the lives within. This sweet, attached Mansard house in the heart of Inman Square stands at the end of a line of row houses. It has private front and rear yards, is filled with light from three sides, and has been faithfully and lovingly maintained all these years. It is located at the heart of a true neighborhood that itself has changed over time, as restaurants and shops have replaced industry, and a new Green Line stop is on the horizon. While 27 Houghton Street has sustained its owners for decades, it is time for them to move on. They know a new owner will make changes - perhaps less gradual than they - yet they trust this next chapter will be as joyful as theirs has been.
