Stevens-Mallison House in The Town (Location)

The house where the Stevens and Mallisons live is owned by Gavin and Maggie's father: "We were all living with Grandfather then. I mean Grandfather was still alive then and he and Uncle Gavin had one side of the house, Grandfather in his bedroom and what we called the office downstairs, and Uncle Gavin on the same side upstairs, where he had built an outside stairway so he could go and come from the side yard, and Mother and Father and Cousin Gowan on the other side while Gowan was going to the Jefferson while he was waiting to enter the prep school in Washington to get ready for the University of Virginia" (47). On its grounds are a "pear tree in the side yard" and a "pink dogwood" (325).
