Description and history

Its original occupants were Alfred and Olive Thorpe, who purchased it apparently from a Lustron Corporation distributor, the Craftsman Home Corporation, in 1951.[2] On November 1, 2007, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.[1]

It is a two-bedroom "Westchester Deluxe Model 2" example.[2]
