Lustron home built in 1950 on a large home site in Community Hts. Home has a breezeway with a two car garage. Two large bedrooms and one bath and just over 1,000 sf of retro perfection. Lustrons are "pre-fab" homes manufactured at a converted airplane plant in Ohio after WWI to service the needs of GIs coming home after the war. This is a rare model because of the factory jalousie window breezeway and two car garage. It sits on .22 acres which is double the size of other sites in the area The home is all steel framing clad in enamel coated steel 2/2 panels. Low on maintenance and high on style, this is the home of today. All steel; inside and out. On National Register of Historic Places: North Irvington Gardens Historic District.Read more
