Nice. Reminds me of our first, $28,000 home. I would get the chimney inspected, and assuming the flue is ....present....repoint the mortar yourself. What kind of condition is the wiring in? If there's a fusebox, there should be a cutoff switch for the mains, and you can probably install a breaker panel yourself(we had to rewire the entire house, it wasn't even worth salvaging) Now is the time to add outlets, lights, and everything else, since the walls aren't finished up yet. Electrical work isn't hard, just Google anything you're not sure of, and NEVER put a splice anywhere but in a box that will be accessible when you're done. That's way against code, and a great way to create a fire hazard. I pulled a wall down and found a ball of duct tape that contained 7, count 'em, 7 pairs of Romex twisted together(no wire nuts) with a healthy amount of melting going on.
