Note:
This home was inspired by a real home plan from the 1935 Sears Honor-Built Catalog. I have done my best to update the homes to our modern standards, however, you may find that some of the homes in this collection have smaller or fewer bathrooms, kitchens, garages, or less open living spaces. This is because I would like to preserve the integrity of the original floor plans.

What the architect had to say about this home in 1935:

The Auburn Modern Home is another good example of what proper design will accomplish in the way of large convenient rooms in a small area...

The floor plans of the Chester are the same as the Auburn, only the recreation room has been planned for attached motor room. Glazed triple “up and over” garage doors are attractive and easy to operate.

About the 1935 Sears Honor-Built Homes:

"Honor-Built Sears homes were known throughout the US as well-made, comfortable, and affordable... styles range from bungalows and small Tudor style cottages to homes influenced by some of the modern trends of the times. The Honor Bilt homes were part of a profitable business model shared by Aladdin and other home manufacturers. Each home was packaged pre-cut and then shipped to the location. The homeowner could literally build his own home from the materials sent. Instructions were included... [Now] these kit homes are being sought by home buyers for their charm and quality."
