Hard no. I've been going to many open houses and there is a strong trend towards more functional layouts over time. The 1940s houses might have a large number of square feet, but the % of that taken up with unusable walkways and narrow rooms is much higher than things built later. 1960s era is better, 1980s better still, and best of all are new builds.
