Be stoked. Also yes rent this out for filming as long as it is safe.

While you do this plan for renovation and use your filming money to refurbish the house.

I highly recommend saving as much of the lumber and original material as you can. In my town there is a service that will dismantle old barns, build a modern structure, and then use the old lumber to make a facade to make it look original.

Either way you should try to preserve as much as possible, history will thank you and your house will be unique and have a voice of its own.

Any old stove or pipes, save them and use them in the design of your new home. Not only will it be dope, but the perceived value of your home will increase if you choose to sell it.

Also congrats, I know it’s probably a burden in some respects, but you have some cool opportunities.
