Eleven years ago, Ron and Jill, then his girlfriend of six months,
discovered the house of their dreams: a landmark Victorian row
house that had belonged to a notorious fraternity in Baltimore.
Unfortunately, it was now a condemned, abandoned property. But Jill
wanted the house and Ron wanted Jill. Beyond the wall-to-wall
graffiti, collapsed fireplaces and banisters, and three dumpsters
worth of trash, the couple envisioned this as their future dream
home. So Ron bought the 4,500-square-foot ruin, despite the fact
that neither Ron nor Jill knew anything about home renovation, and
that the project might ruin them both financially and emotionally.
A book for lovers, dreamers, and do-it-yourselfers,
