The Sears Dundee from the 1928 Modern Homes catalog. In the early years, the Dundee did not have a bathroom, but by 1928 it was included as more square footage was added to the house. |

We don't have many Dundees in the Chicago area, and there are not many to be found nationwide either. Clearly the house was a strong seller since Sears offered it for 10 years. I suspect that the little bungalows are disappearing over time and are being replaced by larger homes.

The Dundee is a sharp little house! Without the porch, however, it would be rather forgettable. I think that the third brick porch pier was intended to hold a planter or potted plant... I'm surprised that none was shown in the catalog illustration. It's nice to see these survivors!
