Have you ever heard of a Lustron home before? They are prefabricated enameled steel houses developed in the post-World War II era United States in response to the shortage of homes for returning G.I.s. The housing company had built 2,500 houses, but failed to deliver 8,000 additional orders. Roughly 2,000 steel Lustrons still stand today, most clustered in the Midwest. We have stayed at this particular one in West Alexandria, Ohio twice now. You can walk to the tiny downtown area for dinner, ice

Lustron homes were a thing of the future, but became a part of the past

I featured this home in March and it quickly sold for $202k. Other Lustron homes in CNY not pictured (they were shown at the end of the video) include 123 Palmer Drive and 455 Buckingham Avenue which was deconstructed and moved to Canada. #syracuse #syracusehistory #lustronhouses | SyracuseHistory

Following World War II, there were not enough homes for returning veterans and their growing families. Lustron houses, pre-fabricated structures made of enamel steel, promised a solution with the ability to build 100 homes in one day. | via Living St. Louis | Nine PBS

Have you ever heard of a Lustron home? If not , me neither until just a few days ago. Lance and I went to go look at a home for a potential flip. Right when I walked in the doors of the home, I noticed something was different. I tapped on the wall, what the heck it’s metal! Walking through , we noticed the whole house was practically made out of metal. A Lustron home is a prefabricated steel house made in the World War ll era . It was definitely a first for us. Lance totally totally dug it, but

This is a model kit for “The Lustron Home” which was the inspiration for the Santuary Hills house. I’m really excited to put this kit together but it may have to wait a bit. I still have to finish working on the Las Negas/New Vegas sign from a few weeks ago. “Lustron houses are prefabricated enameled steel houses developed in the post-World War II era United States in response to the shortage of homes for returning G.I.s”. #lustronhome #lustronhouse #santuaryhills #fallour4 #fallout #newvegas #f

This is a Lustron Home. Designed by Carl Strandlund, the Lustron house was introduced in the late 1940s as a response to the post-WWII housing shortage. Made from prefabricated porcelain enameled steel, these homes were designed to be shipped and assembled anywhere, offering a quick solution to the growing need for housing (similar to a Sears kit). The fire-resistant material allowed for easy maintenance - no painting, no wallpaper, no nails, no wood, etc. The production of Lustron homes ceased

Comment, “Lustron” for 🏡 details 👇 Why Lustron homes are so cool 👇 • Built almost entirely out of steel (walls, roof, cabinets, closets 😮) • Designed after WWII to solve the housing shortage • Enamel-coated panels = super durable low maintenance • Fire-resistant, termite-proof, and rot-proof • Mid-century modern vibes before it was trendy • Many came with built-in shelving, radiant heat, and metal closets • Only about 2,500 still exist in the U.S. — making them incredibly rare • Some are now
