We’re peeling back 140 years of grit to restore our 1884 Victorian, one stubborn layer of paint and one cracked plaster wall at a time. We’re part of a group of cheap old house fanatics working to improve the whole community. In a rust belt town where gorgeous old homes too often sit neglected, we believe in the idea that restoration is more than just preservation of an old house. So if you love watching people scrub, strip, patch, and fuss over the tiny details, you’re in the right place. Please subscribe to Chapline House and join our community of folks with an ongoing love affair with dust, character, and the kind of charm you just can’t buy new.

This 1880s Italianate Victorian in historic Wheeling, WV was built by the Wilsons, loved by the Barnes, and is now being brought back to life by the McGregors. We hope you'll join us on this adventure saving and preserving the history of this special place.
