Property Description
A Rare 1925 Sears Catalog Home with Enduring Character & Modern Comforts. Step into a piece of American architectural history. This authentic 1925 Sears Modern Homes kit house—ordered from the Sears catalog and delivered by rail—showcases the craftsmanship, charm, and thoughtful design that made these homes iconic. Carefully maintained and rich with original details, it offers a unique blend of historic appeal and modern convenience.
Inside, you'll find original hardwood floors, solid wood trim, and a welcoming masonry fireplace in the dedicated living room—an inviting space perfect for everyday gathering. A cozy dining room and classic galley kitchen complete the main living areas, reflecting the home's period design while maintaining excellent functionality.
Thoughtful updates include central air, natural gas heating, updated appliances, and washer/dryer hookups, providing comfort, efficiency, and everyday practicality while preserving the home's historic character.
A full unfinished basement with original poured concrete floors and walls offers excellent storage and utility space, consistent with early 20th‑century Sears construction.
The home also includes a walk‑up attic with a small storage room, ideal for seasonal items, keepsakes, or hobby supplies—an unexpected bonus in a home of this era.
Outside, the property features a detached rear‑entry garage, another common upgrade offered in Sears kit packages. The home's single‑story Bungalow/Ranch profile and inviting front elevation highlight the timeless simplicity of early American residential design.
Located in the heart of Middletown, this home offers walkable access to local shops, parks, and community amenities while giving its next owner the chance to steward a genuine piece of Americana.
