Colonial Revival, Shingle Style

The Charles D. Lewis House is a historic house at 81 Hunting Lane in Sherborn, Massachusetts. It is a two-story wood frame structure, set on a brick and rubblestone foundation, and exhibits informal Shingle style massing with elements of formal Colonial Revival detail. The house is built in a wide V-shape opening to the north, its main entrance south-facing with porches, but, within the angled facades to the north, a circular driveway and port-cochere entry, supported by Tuscan columns. It was built as a gentleman's farm and one of the town's earliest summer residences circa 1905, by Charles D. Lewis, a businessman whose family owned Lewis Wharf in Boston.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
