Five Hundred Dollars to History

For just $500, Sean Keuch bought a 1890s miner’s cabin in Butte, Montana, covered in soot and with no foundation—then spent months painstakingly restoring it, lifting the house piece by piece and preserving original wood he says is more beautiful than anything new. Now, with his girlfriend Rachael, they’re living in the historic gem, furnishing it with salvaged pieces from across Montana, all part of Butte’s “Dust to Dazzle” initiative. It’s a testament to vision, grit, and the power of turning forgotten history into a home that’s both charming and deeply rooted in the past.
