I live in Southern England, where the roads are Roman (ie- straight and go on for miles) and you find Roman pots etc in your garden if you dig for long enough. But I live next to a Neolithic buriel ground which was occupied by the Romans later, so there is a LOT of history here. There are more houses that are "period" than modern where I live. So, a Victorian terrace with 2 bedrooms will be a cheap house- often cheaper than a modern one.
I LOVE the 1880's houses you see in Westerns, for example. And the massive blocks in New York- for example, and I apologise for my lack of knowledge, those on Sesame Street (!) surely must be Victorian?!

If you look at the 6th picture down, you will see the houses in a street near me. These buildings are still exactly the same, but they are not revered in any way because they are old. In fact they are quite cheap!
