What is the lifespan of the average home?

I live in a 1 1/2 storey home built in 1922. I have totally updated the home, (wiring, plumbing etc.). There has been some settling mainly on the second floor, not enough to prevent doors from closing. I purchases the home in 1999. I have not noticed any new settling since. I am wondering how long a lifespan a home built in 1922 has. I like my home but it is 84 years old. I will be entering retirement when this house turns 100. I maintain this home accordingly but I wonder if it is wise to have a 100 year old retirement home. I would appreciate some comments on my delima. Thank you.
