1207 Fairview Drive

The 1929 Sears catalogue of Honor Bilt Homes promoted a dynamic kit house known as “The Mansfield.” Differences between the Mansfield’s gabled entrance and window placement and those of this 1930s-era cottage imply that a local builder may have used the Sears product as a general model for construction.
