I was watching an episode of Time Team from Great Brittan. There were digging in a lady's yard and went inside her house to discuss the plans and were amazed to see Roman era arches in the house, and a wooden beam from the 1,200s. That is an old house.
My old house was built in the late 1940s and not one thing was standard to modern parts. It had lead drains. It had been modernized in the 1970s to 2 wire copper, and all the electrical was in conduit as the ground. It had 80 amp service and that was maxed out all the time. I had to update it to 200 amp to sell the house.
Old houses look cool, but I don't want to live in one ever again.
