Dutch Gambrel with post-and-beam interior in Canton is Home of the Week
From the outside, this home appears a classic suburban Dutch Gambrel with attached two-car garage, but the interior bespeaks an earlier time with its post-and-beam construction. The rough-hewn beams are stained dark brown, a dramatic counterpoint to the textured white plaster ceilings. Underneath an airy ceiling, the kitchen features cherry cabinets and granite countertops. A six-sided island with electric cooktop looks toward the dining area with fireplace framed by exposed brick mantel and doors leading to multilevel deck.

Around the corner, the family room has its own fireplace and is a large rectangle that ends in a half-moon bank of windows overlooking the backyard. There is a first-floor office.
The post-and-beam design continues to the second floor, including the master which has a ceiling defined by the Gambrel roofline. The master has double closets and a private spacious deck overlooking the backyard. The two other bedrooms are of different sizes.
The full bath on the second floor has a tub with a shower, and a heated floor. The partially finished basement has wainscoting, recessed lighting, and carpet. The house is on a 1.26-acre lot a short distance from the Blue Hills Ski Area. Audrey Blanchard of Century 21 C & S Properties in Stoughton is the listing broker.
