Lady pays $71K for deserted lighthouse and turns it into cozy, one-of-a-kind home
At 65, Sheila Consaul embarked on an adventure that most would shy away from: she bought an abandoned lighthouse on Lake Erie, near Fairport Harbor, Ohio.
Sheila discovered the lighthouse in a government auction, purchasing it for $71,000.
Living just outside Washington, D.C., she was drawn by her passion for historical preservation and the allure of a cooler summer retreat.
This project was not just about acquiring a unique property; it was about breathing life into a piece of history.
