What I need to comment: photo of fireplace/mantel and what is over the mantel, art, mirror, nothing at this time? Having the outlets could be a big plus.

Thank you. I'm traveling today and do not have a picture. Thinking and daydreaming while riding. The fireplace has a raised hearth with heavy stained hickory molding, (milled by my father in law) painted the wall color(ivory yellow) above the mantle. Very traditional, no painted brick or ultra modern like so many homes today.
