Most other houses in the area do not have a fireplace in this room (upstairs family/bonus room). Usually only on the main floor and sometimes in the basement. So I don’t think it’s required though it may be nice to have.
Thanks. I will look for the vents when I go for inspection. Paint and baseboard is ok, but drywall I have zero experience so that’s an area I may need help.
Wife doesn’t like it, that’s reason #1. The room is smaller than it looks like on that picture so it does take a bit of space. Most houses in the area do not have a fireplace in that room (usually main floor and basement) so it wouldn’t compromise resale value I guess.
