A place where all of this information was readily available? A Hub with vast amounts of information on Old Houses. A Directory of Vetted Businesses that Support Old House Homeowners. A Community of Old House Homeowners, Enthusiasts, and Professionals to Inspire you and Motivate you on this Journey.
