Vanished Rooms offers The Ashworth Home Manual, an illustrated digital guide to creating the quiet character of an old house without replacing everything in your home. The 446-page PDF contains 65 chapters covering decorating, furnishing, maintenance and repair, with practical methods, measurements and estimated 2026 US prices. Its advice spans paint and color, lighting, furniture, room layouts, curtains, rugs, art, books and household objects. It also addresses old-house considerations, including lead and asbestos safety, plaster repair and preserving original windows, alongside ways to improve modern and builder-grade homes.

The manual emphasizes secondhand finds and caring for existing possessions, with guidance on estate sales, auctions and online marketplaces. Readers also receive room-by-room checklists, shopping lists for three budgets, a savings ledger, glossary and seasonal maintenance calendar. The PDF is available for a one-time payment, with free updates and a seven-day money-back guarantee. Vanished Rooms also presents two companion titles, The Ashworth Table and Ashworth Style, and offers a bundle that includes all three books plus The Ashworth Field Guide to Antiques as a bonus.
