Just happened upon this one not too far from home. A little research shows there are quite a few in the area.

From the Village of Brookfield's website: (

"Brookfield's housing stock is diverse, sturdy, and architecturally interesting. About 20% are "Arts & Crafts" movement influenced Chicago-style bungalows built in the 1920s. About half the bungalows are brick and the rest are stucco, frame, field stone, and other materials. There are also a wide range of bi-levels, ranches, Victorian, Cape Cod, Queen Anne, Georgian, and even pre-fabricated houses from Sears and Wards. There are even about 19 enamel "Home of the Future" Lustron homes built after the 1933-34 Chicago World's Fair."

Although the lounge shows the color as yellow, it appears to be painted white.
