aside from the obvious of water pipes freezing, can cold damage a house? I
don't know what might occur, wallpaper peeling or plaster cracking or
whatever.

If damage can occur, at what temperature would it occur? If I keep am
unused
bedroom closed up for the winter with the radiator turned off, can
anything
bad result?

Go to Blockbusters and rent "Dr. Zhivago"-- that will give you an idea of
what real nasty cold can do to a house...
