[quote=Anonymous]I have a 110 year old house (1909). The outer walls are 2 to 3 feet thick made from very attractive field stone. Surprisingly, the support structure is steel girders and cement. The rooms have 10 foot ceilings but there are almost 2 feet between the ceiling and the floor on the next which allows for said steel and cement infrastructure. The floors are wide plank oak (10-12 inches) that are 2 plus inches thick and a couple of rooms have solid slate flooring. Each of the 4 fireplaces is made from the same field stone and 2 of them are 4.5 x 7 feet. Roof is slate. We had to change out windows and electrical over the years and reconfigured the kitchen. Other items had been well maintained and or appropriately replaced. There is no new build anywhere that is as solid as this house. With the updates, we have the best of both worlds. [/quote]
