Howdy from SW Oklahoma. In the process of buying this home..... there are about a dozen like it here in town. Porch wraps around to the "front side entry". Our first project will be to replace all the windows previous owners saw fit to remove. *sigh* Seen nothing in the Sears catalog or Aladdin books to help ID it. Was hoping someone here could help educate me.
Thanks for the look! ![]() |

You have wonderful bungalow. Congratulations! It is going to be a lot of work but I can tell that it will be a labor of love.
Did they save the old windows or are you going to have to start from scratch? If you have to buy brand new windows, Anderson has a sweet deal where you pick out any number of stained glass designs that compliment A & C or FLW homes. Other manufactures will let you pick out a mullion design that will also compliment your home. There are experts on this site who know everything about kit houses. They can really help you pinpoint what you have. I just know architectrual style (way too many years of Art History). Keep us posted about your new home. I hope that everything is unpainted original wood inside. Can you post any pictures of the interior? I hope that you have a great fireplace. Bev. |

Its not an Aladdin Home, they never had a design like this house (which is a great bungalow). Look at the structural lumber and see if you can find stamped, stenciled or grease pencil assembly marking on floor joists or roof rafters. Thats a sure sign its a kit house. If there are no markings it might be the work of a local builder.
