Reality of old house no radiators..

househope2021

Hi

New here.

First time buyer looking at old 2 storey farm house, no radiators in house. Stove in kitchen fireplace in each bedroom.. 4 bedrooms. Needs new windows and internal updating. Structures are sound, roof good condition.

Reality of cost and difficulty of installing such heating system? Or any other heating system options? Costs of material and labour??

Very small budget and completely clueless regards heating system.

Possible? Or just too expensive move on?

Many thanks.

Installing a warm, cosy system that is cheap to run is very achievable. It does cost a lot to get it installed tho and requires very skilled work.

Some of the things that would affect the decision would be the current building, e.g. :

- Is it dry (both walls and ground)?
- What are the walls made of... assuming solid stone wall?
- What are the windows like?
- Is there any insulation?

They are just some things to think about.
