Chestnuts Roasting

This fireplace gave us heartburn. We had to figure out the size we wanted it, the materials we were going to use to cover it, so that we could frame out the opening to the right size. We had to insulate and drywall the inside of the chase. The inspector had to see the chase before we could order an install.
At long last, it is in. And I think it looks fabulous. Obviously once the ledgestone goes on, it will look entirely different, but I thought a progress picture was in order.
