The Richard Sanger III House is a 2½-story timber-frame dwelling built around 1734 in Sherborn, Massachusetts, exemplifying Georgian architectural principles. Five bays wide and clad in clapboard, the house is distinguished by its side gambrel roof and a rear leanto addition dating to circa 1775—an unusual combination for an 18th-century Sherborn residence. The front facade displays symmetrically placed windows, while an off-center door flanked by sidelights and topped with a gabled pediment provide formal accents. Built for Richard Sanger III, the son of a Boston merchant and one of the town's few documented slaveholders, the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
