Rate This Remodel: Manhattan Beach fireplace
After moving to the U.S. from England several years ago, Kara Noble and her husband took on a 1940s Manhattan Beach bungalow that had been infused with way too much 1970s vibe.
Part of their challenge was updating a paint-specked brick fireplace (below).
How do you think they did with it?
I think it looks great! Not overly traditional or modern. Will work well with any decor. Good job.

It desperately needs a mantle, otherwise looks good.
