Many old estates here as well. One neighbor's 1800s era home (The Armour Estate) purportedly has the most elaborate wood/mill work of them all. I can't imagine what it would cost to replace.
The neighbor behind me owns a beautiful 1800s home as well. In the rear "receiving room" the walls and ceiling are completely covered with 1/2" crotch mahogany which is original to the home. I don't think you can even get that quality material any longer.
I can easily see replacement being in seven figure territory.
