Depending on how many pots of peppers you want to winter-over, is it possible to set up a corner in the house with some grow lights and a little ventilation? That would give you a chance to see if you like the process before committing to a greenhouse. Woofies right about the unwanted travelers. I used to overwinter peppers (mainly ornamental) but I always had a problem with aphids and have since deemed peppers an aphid magnet. If you decide to over-winter your peppers indoors, you may want to look at a product like Azamax to control pests. It doesn't leave a harmful residue on something you'll want to eat.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize that we can't eat money. Cree proverb
