Formal living room with wood floors , iron chandelier, glass double doors leading to sunroom. Custom wood fireplace and built in cabinets. Open wood archway to kitchen. Wood molding ceiling shelf.

This house features a glassy connection to the outdoors, with the pitched roof lifting toward the expansive views. Anchoring the living space is a freestanding alcove, surrounded by glass, creating an inglenook for the 6ft direct vent SPARK fireplace. This alcove is mirrored on the opposite side with folding doors to the outside. The horizontal proportions of the Spark fireplace extend the fireplace across the alcove. A hearth of bluestone is also the full width of the alcove, providing additional warm seating space. Burnished steel frames the fireplace opening, while cabinetry completes the alcove and hides the TV. The result is a focus of warmth for family and friends which is visible from the entire space. Practicable on a tight budget; with an accessible internal flow (we're not getting any younger); and Designed to strongly invite and reflect the agricultural land and building types around us. Understanding the need for a quick – and beautiful - way to warm us upon arrival on cold winter days lead us naturally to Spark Modern Fires.
