The home is a late 1800′s home with an oil sourced heating system. Any estimates on how much it would cost to convert/put in a natural gas heating system?

Could be as little as $3000.00 – for a forced air furnace replacement and up depending on size of the unit and if anything needs to be upgraded. There may be additional costs to get a natural gas line to the home.
Hot water heating would cost more, maybe $4000.00 and up.

Why not get a dual-system, you already have oil, so you just insert a gas boiler into the pipework, and you have the benefit of either system,.
It has to be correctly installed of course so that hot water from one boiler does’nt flow through the other. This is achieved by the use of one way valves.
Don’t forger to add inhibitor into the system to prevent rusting
Think in terms of £1000.
