Way back in the 1920s, prospective homeowners could pick out the home they wanted from the Sears Roebuck catalog. In fact, the plans for this home appeared on page 24 of the 1926 catalog. This Craftsman-style bungalow has since been totally renovated, with new hardwood floors, windows, stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, granite counters, and new hardwood cabinets. Although it was redone down to its studs, it retains a ton of character, including a sturdy ladder up to a sleeping loft above the living room. There’s an expansive front porch, a side deck, and French doors that lead from the walkout basement to the deep backyard with a garden and inviting patio. This little dream of a home is located on a private road edging Sterling Forest and its multitude of hiking opportunities; an HOA membership gets you a private beach and dock space on huge Greenwood Lake.
