Sears Homes in Detroit?

[cman710]

From 1908-1940, Sears, Roebuck, and Co. sold homes through their mail order Modern Homes program. The parts for the homes were pre-fabricated and then shipped to a purchaser, who then assembled the home himself or presumably paid someone else to do so. Sears sold between 75,000 and 100,000 of these homes across the country, depending on the source you consult, and there were about 450 different designs available.

The homes ranged from the fancy Honor Bilt homes to simple bungalows, which did not always have indoor plumbing.

But other homes were more modest Bungalows:

Does anyone know of any of these homes still surviving in Detroit or possibly one of the inner-ring suburbs? I have to think that there is one surviving somewhere!
