Double Sided Fireplace Dilemma

I'm not sure what to do with this double sided fireplace. I thought about covering up the cutouts to center the TV but im hoping to see if there are any better ideas out there. The other side is supposed to be a family room but were converting into a dining room.

Comments (37)The problem is the stark cold white walls against the soft warm browns of the fireplace. I don't recommend going all beige but try colours from the same warm spectrum as the fireplace and I think you'll find it looks more natural in the space. Also, the round candles don't work with the squares and oblongs of the fireplace; find other accessories that enhance rather than scream at the shapes and colours and that could make a huge difference. So could a mirror or picture above it - it would shift the focus so the fireplace doesn't dominate. Work with it, not against, then judge it. These fireplaces are handsome; trying to pretty them doesn't work....See MoreBig fireplace dilemma!
Comments (2)"710 approx to meet hetas regs", this is new to me, and explains a lot of posts similar on Houzz lately. I moved out of a rental that had nowhere near that with a log burner in, and in fact nowhere near the depth youre trying to achieve! I think I would have said sod the regs and put it how you want, swear it was always like that lol. ah well... I'm sure there is a solution, somehow.......See MoreDouble sided fireplace
Comments (1)Not something with which I have any personal experience as it is a pretty niche requirement, so I'd start with a google search and speak to a few companies to get a feel for them. I'd certainly recommend getting references and perhaps going and seeing some of their installations and talking to previous customers. No doubt other Houzzers will be able to advise too!...See MoreDouble sided stove/fireplace
Comments (3)Hi Samantha I know you said about not mounting the tv on the fireplace wall but there's actually some pretty clever stuff you can do with this and make sure it doesn't take away from the stone/whatever finish it is. It's definitely the most natural place to put it as blocking off one side of the fireplace will create imbalance and just won't be as practical to be honest. See below for some inspo... Hope this helps!...See More

Close up openings to give a solid wall over the fireplace. Open other side of firplace for two walkways.
