Renovating An 1890's Home! | Relocated

Betsy Sweeny is a 27yearold architectural historian and preservationist at the Wheeling National Heritage Area who decided to take on the task of renovating an 1890s home in Wheeling, West Virginia. Sweeny is amongst a significant group of young professionals who have been leaving metropolitan cities for, quite literally, greener pastures.

Betsy found her turnofthecentury, “eclecticstyle” redbrick Victorian home on the east side of town for a mere $18,500 thanks in part to the Cheap Old Houses Instagram account, which promotes historic homes in need of some TLC. She estimates that her renovation will come to $125,000.

Special thanks to Wheeling Heritage Media for providing Bustle with the beautiful footage of Betsy and her home. You can learn more about Wheeling House and Wheeling Heritage Media at https://weelunk.com/.
