My house in Syracuse looked very much like the “Cornell.” I understand it was a kit sold through Sears and Roebucks. It even had parquet floors, oak woodwork, and stained glass windows.
The house image shown sixth from the top – the long ranch-looking house – doesn’t seem to fit this category, as it appears to belong to a 1950s-60s style home category instead.
The others seem to provide a fairly wide variety of 20s and 30s designs, though. Particularly from the standpoint of kit homes and plan book style homes.

Cool. At least back then there was some quality to the house “kits”! I grew up in a big old Victorian-style house on top of a steep hill.
