However, a fireplace can be included in any room design in your custom home, so you have many exciting options. For instance, a wood-burning stove can provide the warmth and atmosphere of an outdoor campfire, whereas a gas stove can provide a mess-free way to enjoy your home.

Standard: The Family Room

You may routinely assume that a fireplace will fit in fine in the family room. This is a popular choice because it is timeless and a great all-around solution. When a fireplace is in the family room, everyone in the household can enjoy it, providing a warm, inviting space. Overall, visitors and family members alike will feel welcomed and connected.

 Modern: The Bedroom

Are you searching for a way to spruce up your bedroom space for even more comfort? As you know, bedrooms are places meant for relaxation and self-care.
