Here’s some info from Wikipedia on Sears Houses:
Sears Catalog Homes were ready-to-assemble kit houses sold through Sears, Roebuck and Co. mail-order catalogs.
Time period: sold from 1908 to 1942
Scale: Sears sold 70,000+ of these homes in North America.
How they were shipped: parts were shipped primarily by rail (as kits), then local delivery to the building site followed.
What was included: kits typically included most materials needed to build the house; many models also offered the “latest conveniences” of the era (e.g., central heating, indoor plumbing, electricity).
Designs: the program offered hundreds of designs across many architectural styles.
Today: identifying/authenticating a true Sears kit home can be tricky because other kit home companies sometimes copied similar plans and details.
