Don’t miss this opportunity to own a piece of architectural history! This all-steel, prefabricated Lustron home is one of the few remaining mid-century models known for their durability, low maintenance, and energy efficiency. Built post-WWII, Lustron homes were designed to last—and this one has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its unique character. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath home features original steel wall panels, a spacious living room, dedicated dining area, a galley kitchen, a generously sized laundry room, and tons of storage! Recent updates include a remodeled bathroom, new carpet and paint in one of the bedrooms, mini-split air conditioning system, and a contractor-repaired main sewer line to the city connection. The exterior offers even more to love: a one-car detached garage, newly added chain-link fence, private patio space, and a charming gazebo for outdoor enjoyment. A true collector’s home with modern convenience—schedule your showing today!
