Fireplace - where oh where shall you go?

Ok that's possible. However, the existing window is 1800w and the hearth will be 1800w. Not sure there is enough room either side to fit more glazing? I also like…

Thanks all - I appreciate the responses. Not much love for looking up at the tele above the fire! Personal preference I guess and everyone is different.
