Sheila Consaul purchased an abandoned lighthouse in Ohio for $71,000 and has since spent over $300,000 renovating it into a livable home. The lighthouse, built in 1925, had been abandoned for over 70 years before Consaul became its first resident. The extensive renovations included adding an eat-in kitchen, rewiring electrical, plumbing, and refurbishing the wooden floors. Consaul relies on a combination of a gasoline-powered generator, solar power, and wind power as the lighthouse is completely off the grid. Despite going over budget, Consaul considers the project a great challenge and opportunity. She plans to continue offering private tours and renew her lease with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
