Hi there! I came across this photo and your question and I can't positively identify which stone was used on this fireplace however Eldorado Stone's Mountain Ledge comes close to this same style. The Durango or Lantana color might come close to matching this same application. I've included a link to their site for your reference. http://www.eldoradostone.com/products/stone/nationwide-profiles/mountain-ledge/

Thank you so much for trying to help! I will check out these other recommendations for the Eldorado.

Valspar's Sea Foam is a similar color.

Valspar's Lyndhurst Shady Grove is a similar color.

I don't think they have to be the same finish in two different rooms, but they probably have to "go together" if that makes sense.

Thanks much....appreciate it!

I have the same floor plan, and would also like to know about the approximate cost for the custom built cabinets.

i have a wall like this i love the unit but ihave the heat unit in that wall i dont know where can i put the heater

The Cable box could be stored in either of the side cabinets as they are, and the tv could be a model with the DVD player built into the side. Another option is to do a screen or lattice front to the side cabinets and store both things inside in such a position as the remote signal could connect with them. Hope that helps!

You can store many parts in another room or closet with an infrared remote unit http://www.smarthome.com/770204IR/Channel-Vision-E4200IR-Micro-Modulator-4-Channel-w-IR-Repeater/p.aspx

See http://www.houzz.com/questions/74877

Since they're custom built-ins, they could be built to any size you need to fit your space.

An interior designer or good cabinet maker can design this for you. And tweak it to make sure it's exactly what works for your home and how you want to use it!

Thanks

Of course a flatscreen can be mounted above a wood-burning fireplace - However it depends on the specific situation whether you can mount a TV above YOUR fireplace.

If you have a solid masonry overmantel - you're going to end up with big holes in the brick and exposed wires everywhere, which obviously isn't optimum for this type of installation.

This is a gas fireplace - more specifically, a direct-vent gas fireplace.

One of the challenges with a manufactured wood-burning fireplace comes if you try to recess the TV into the wall - the size of the chimney will usually prevent much more than a recess the depth of the the wall framing. I don't recommend recessing the TV anyway (because it defines the size of the TV forever), but I would suggest recessing the mounting bracket just slightly if you have a side view where you might see the mount & wiring.

Heat usually isn't an issue over most wood-burning fireplaces simply because most wood-burning fireplaces aren't very efficient and most of the heat goes up the chimney.

On the other hand, unvented gas fireplaces (illegal in some states) produce A LOT of convective heat, so we do not recommend that you install a TV over the top of an unvented fireplace. Having said that, a lot of people do.

In this case, there are no codes that will prevent you from putting a TV over a wood or gas fireplace, but there are certainly a number of considerations - viewing height, ease of wiring, heat buildup, etc - to consider before trying it.

Thanks for all the info! This is very helpful.

Either natural stone or man-made stone can generally be installed directly over your existing brick, so long as the brick is sound and installing stone won't interfere with the fireplace. Can you upload a photo of your fireplace so we can see what is going on? Don't be shy!
If you are planning to install cabinets on either or both sides, the cabinets should be installed first and the stone installed to it, instead of the other way around. If the fireplace sits forward of the side cabinets, you can have the cabinet people design the cabinets with an extra wide stile (the vertical piece of the cabinet frame) toward the fireplace so the stone has something to "die" into.
There are some other tricks to doing a nice job, but I hesitate to bury you with information that isn't pertinent to your project.

Austere Gray 6184 by Sherwin-Williams looks similar.
