Description and history

The Daniel Morse III House stands in a rural area of eastern Sherborn, on the west side of Farm Road north of its junction with Forest Road. It is a Шаблон:Frac-story timber-frame structure, with a gabled roof, central chimney, and shingled exterior. At the rear the roof extends to the first floor, giving the house a saltbox profile. The front facade is three bays wide, with a center entrance flanked by pilasters and topped by a transom window and gabled pediment. An ell extends to the rear of the main block. Other buildings on the property include a barn and chicken coop.[2]

The oldest portion of this house was built c. 1710, and is one of a handful of First Period houses in the town. Originally a three-bay structure with off-center chimney, it was extended to its present five-bay configuration with central chimney in the late 18th century. Daniel Morse III, who built the house, was the son of one of Sherborn's first settlers, who acquired Шаблон:Convert of surrounding land in 1656. The house was sold out of the Morse family in the late 18th century. The barn, south of the house, was built in 1900 in the Shingle style.[2]
