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


I think that a "kit" house would be something like a "Sears" house -


That's what I had in mind.

Google for more info.


Sears houses we often bungalows, typical of the "arts & crafts"
architecture of the 1920's.


So I was close, although maybe not in the case I was looking at.

Thanks. I like being close.

It would be something like this:

All Sears houses are kit houses, and many Sears houses are arts &
crafts in style. All in all, very few arts and crafts houses are
Sears houses (or kits by others). Arts and crafts is a predominant
architecture in my part of Wisconsin, but I have only seen one Sears
house here.
