We have a similar problem with our old house. Our handyman/contractor came to see what he could do. After bidding $2000 because he would need to drill through and repair century old woodwork he recommended the oil base heaters, there are more perm. ones. We purchased ours at Target for $30. My dad was once a contractor and mostly bid on fire jobs, he hates space heaters and when I asked him he 2nd the oil filled heaters. They can't catch anything on fire. You just need to make sure your electricity is up to code, and it does do a # on the bill. Good luck!
