Agreed, the attic insulation is minimal. Actually has 3 different types of insulation. Just had it tested and was delighted to learn there is no asbestos, so we can add insulation without removing what is there.

We installed a high efficiency furnace and air conditioning and it’s been surprisingly cheap to heat and cool.

One interesting thing with houses of this age: there are doors everywhere. In fact, there is one spot where I can touch 5 doors without moving. So I can go to the man cave I put in the basement and play guitar or listen to music at high volume without disturbing Mrs Cranky late at night, since I can close multiple doors to block the sound.
