New Home, Centerville, MA

This new home in Centerville was built by Cape Associates with Catalyst Architecture. A paver driveway curves to a cluster of gabled roofs, cedar-stained garage doors and a covered entry with matching wood columns. Stone steps lead down from the deck to the patio.

Gray siding keeps the large house visually quiet, and planted beds soften the approach. At the back, a raised deck with white railings overlooks a stone patio with a fire pit and Adirondack chairs.

• Butler's pantry with a beverage refrigerator and glass-front cabinets
• Stair with white balusters and a stained handrail
• Kitchen with two islands and white cabinetry
• Living room with a stone fireplace flanked by built-ins

Warm cedar tones repeat on the garage doors, porch posts and entry, tying the wings of the house together. Soft gray walls and white trim keep the interior rooms bright and calm.
