2104 Mary Avenue

Own a piece of mid-century American housing history! Beyond its fascinating history, 2104 Mary Avenue offers an affordable opportunity for a first-time buyer, downsizer, or investor. The efficient single-story floor plan features 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and 855 square feet, including a comfortable living room, eat-in kitchen, and convenient main-floor laundry. Built in 1952, this Lansing ranch is a National Homes prefabricated home, produced during the post-WWII housing boom by one of America's pioneering factory-built housing manufacturers. The home's original National Homes identification and care plate remains in place--a fascinating reminder of its history. This home features the company's distinctive "stressed-skin" panel construction, an engineering technique its original identification plate notes aircraft manufacturers also used. History aside, this home offers plenty of practical appeal today. One of the property's biggest surprises is outside: an exceptionally deep 70' 308' lot totaling nearly half an acre, providing an expansive backyard with plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors. There's also a detached two-car garage with overhead storage. Natural-gas forced-air heat, public water and sewer, plus a refrigerator, gas range/oven, washer, and dryer round out the package--plus a convenient Lansing location with easy access to shopping, restaurants, schools, and major routes. Affordable, practical, and genuinely interesting, 2104 Mary Avenue offers something you won't find in every home--a tangible connection to America's postwar housing history.
