[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 15 year old home (okay, it's pretty much a mcmansion, which I regret, but that is a different topic). The kitchen opens into a two story family room with a huge red brick fireplace (same red brick as the home exterior) flanked by white bookcases. We are remodeling the kitchen/family room. I feel the red brick fireplace is dated, but not sure what to do about it. We could cover it in a stone veneer, but that might be too pricey, or we could box it out with some white trim, but would some people view that as covering up an asset? We could also try to dress it up with a nice mantel (it has a junky one now). WWYD? Would you see a big brick fireplace as a plus or minus if you were buying a house? Thanks. [/quote] Does it have an ugly insert? Never heard of any such thing as an "dated" fireplace. But ugly inserts gots to go.[/quote]
