The entire neighborhood is beige and gray, but at the end of the street sits a bright blue house. Who lives there?

The former owner of the land's mother lives there. This was the house they grew up in with lots of land around for him and his 4 sisters to play all day and into the night.  This was the house where his father was born. When the father died, his mother and his 4 sisters were very poor. There was no more running around and playing. There was looking for food in dumpsters and wearing very old clothes.
Once day a someone wanted to built houses on their land. They did not want to sell the land to this person but, but they needed the money to eat. So he sold the land with the one stipulation was that all the house built had to be beige and gray to show how sad he was at having to sell the land.
