Even in today’s modern design world, many still think of fireplaces in relatively limited ways. This is often seen most in fireplace layouts – some homeowners seem to still be under the impression that fireplaces are limited to living rooms and similar central areas of the home.
At Uintah Fireplace and Design, we’re here to tell you that our wide selection of contemporary fireplace options is far too versatile to be limited in such ways. Modern fireplaces, from gas fireplace options to wood burning inserts, electric options and many others, are versatile products that will do well in various areas of the home, including several you may not have considered as fireplace locations in the past. Here are several alternative fireplace installation locations you might consider, plus some basic themes as you think about these.
Outdoor Areas
For starters, we offer numerous products that allow you to bring warming and other fireplace benefits to your outdoor area, whether a patio, deck or any other kind of setup you have. From barbecues to fire pits and several other convertible options, these allow you and your family or friends to enjoy the seasonal weather with some additional comfort.
Outdoor fire pits or fireplaces also serve as excellent central areas for gatherings if you’re a regular host. They also tend to increase the usage of the patio or deck area, including in colder months where these areas might otherwise go relatively unused.
Master Bathroom
You may think a bathroom fireplace is something only a rich person can afford, but you’re simply incorrect here. Modern fireplace upgrades allow you to experience this kind of luxury for a reasonable cost, bringing elegance and comfort into your space and also acting as an additional heat source for the bathroom.
On top of this, a well-designed and properly installed fireplace in your bathroom may add significant value to your home. If you’re considering selling in the near future, this is a strong upgrade to consider.
Kitchen
Kitchens are already hubs for activity in the home, so why not consider adding a fireplace to increase the function and comfort in the room? This is an especially valuable theme for larger kitchen spaces, including those where social gatherings are regularly held.
Foyer Area
Finally, nothing says “welcome home” quite like a foyer or entry area complete with a warm, crackling fireplace. These work in both larger foyer spaces and smaller entryways, brightening the space and also hitting guests with an immediate blast of warm air to welcome them inside during the cold winter season.
