Description
This is a rare Lustron Home. 5 were built in Muncie. Lustron homes were designed to be affordable, maintenance-free housing. They were built between 1946-1949 (this one was built in 1949). Due to the World War, there were still restrictions on the use of steel, but one of the available uses for steel at the time was housing. The demand for affordable housing was huge after the war and the US Govt. gave Lustron a loan to build these homes. "Although the Lustron Corporation is a thing of the past,...This is a rare Lustron Home. 5 were built in Muncie. Lustron homes were designed to be affordable, maintenance-free housing. They were built between 1946-1949 (this one was built in 1949). Due to the World War, there were still restrictions on the use of steel, but one of the available uses for steel at the time was housing. The demand for affordable housing was huge after the war and the US Govt. gave Lustron a loan to build these homes. "Although the Lustron Corporation is a thing of the past, Lustron homes have lived up to their promise of being nearly maintenance-free. The paint was baked into the enamel tiles on the exterior walls and therefore never need to be repainted. The shingles were also made of steel and almost all Lustron homes that are still standing have their original roof (as does this home). Although comparatively small at 1,000 square feet, the architects took extreme measures in saving space. Book shelves were built into the walls, interior doors would roll into the walls, etc." This home is 990 SF, has 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath (with a standing shower), a covered back patio, and a 1.5 car detached cinder block garage. Much of the interior has been repainted with newer vinyl flooring. The refrigerator and range/oven is newer and the range is gas. It also has a newer exterior electrical panel. 2 new Habitat For Humanity homes are currently being built just North of this home on the same side of the street. No appliances are included. Immediate possession.
