Original style and simplicity – Combination fireplaces

Adding a Victorian combination fireplace to your home is an easy, affordable and simple way to inject style, sophistication and also value to your property. Victorian combination fireplaces, quite obviously were introduced back in the Victorian era and proved to be a popular choice for many Victorian homes. These combination fireplaces combine various materials to create a beautiful centrepiece fireplace – hence the title combination fireplace.

Combination fireplaces feature a typical cast iron fire surround, a cast fireback, flue plate, fireplace insert, grate and the front bars in one fireplace – as opposed to having a typical fireplace that would involve having a separate fireplace mantel and insert. The typical style of Victorian combination fireplaces,such as those found online at Strippadoor, takes on the form of small rounded arch fireplace openings which ooze style and create a focal point in any room. Together with a cast iron surround, these combination fireplaces are character pieces in any home, providing a beautifully detailed and show stopping fireplace that becomes the heart of the home.

After all, there’s nothing better than sitting around a warm fire on a cold, damp and dreary day whilst you enjoy a nice warm beverage and enjoy some quality time with friends and family. Installing a new fireplace can help create a warm and inviting atmosphere in your very own home, and it’s something that all the family can enjoy (safely, of course). We all enjoy spending quality time with our loved ones and creating a home instead of a house brings you one step closer to creating the perfect home atmosphere. Combination fireplaces offer an added element of beauty and style that can create a lasting impression on your home as well as making your living area feel comfortable, homely and full of love.

As well as the aesthetic appeal, the style element and the comfortable living adding a combination fireplace to your home also adds value. It’s a well-known fact that Victorian fireplaces help to increase the value of your home, more than a modern fireplace. This gives you a unique feature, some character and some history under your belt that becomes an investment; you can enjoy the immediate benefits, and when it comes to selling your home in the late future you might just see financial benefits too.

It’s easy to see why so many households across Britain choose to install a combination fireplace to help create their perfect living room.
