How do you add, and how expensive is it to add, air conditioning to a house built in 1905 with radiators?

My husband and I are looking at a house built in 1905. It has gorgeous radiators for the heating which we plan on keeping but I absolutely cannot live without central air! Since there is no duct work, how does one add AC? I want to avoid having window units all over the house (it's a HUGE house) but we need to consider the costs of adding AC when we make an offer on the house.How do you add, and how expensive is it to add, air conditioning to a house built in 1905 with radiators?
Yes it is verry difficult to add central ac. You would need to run duct work to all rooms that you want cold. Other options are that if the house has an attic you could just cool the top floor by putting vents through the celing. Also you could cool some larger rooms with a twin split system.

If it has a large attic, you could put all of the duct work and the cooling system up there. Since heat rises and cool air goes down, then even if it is a two or three story house it would be cool down stairs. I put one in like that in a very large 19th century house in Cheraw, SC it had over 7,000 square feet and three levels, even in the heat of summer which can easily get to well over 100 degrees it stayed cool.
Mitsubishi has a product line called Mr. Slim. It requires an outside condensing unit, just like a typical system, and indoor handling units for each room. The units are connected by refrigerant lines running through small 3'; holes in the the wall or ceiling. You can see it at: http://www.mrslim.com/Products/Category.asp?ProductCategoryID=24
