1925 arts and crafts house. Is that the same as a kit?

No. Did you get the description from a real estate ad? If so, it's probably
referring to this:

It was a plaintiff on the piple's court, describing her own house.

It has been in "this old house" magazine, and they showed one picture
of the kitchen, but none of the outside.

They were fighting with the painter, but lost in court.

Much of the Stickley furniture collection sorta kinda fits into this
category as well.

Thanks.

Probably refers to a building style that was prevalent in that era.
Here in California, these homes are referred to as "California
Craftsman" style. They are very unique and may contain period details
and embellishments such as built-in redwood or gumwood cabinets in
dining rooms and around fireplace, boxed beam ceilings, wainscoting,
antique wall sconces, clinker brick, beautiful glazed tile in
bathrooms, etc.
