There are two fireplaces in the Adobe. They are place back to back with one inside in the living room and the other outside on the patio. They share a chimney, divided into 2 air chambers, one for each fireplace.
I love both of these fireplaces. They are built of brick and have adobe from the mantle up. Both were in serious disrepair as you can see by my photos. I didn’t think we were going to be able to bring them back. Our masons were took it as a challenge and were able to restore the bricks of both. Take a look at what a fantastic job they did.
We will have the adobe covered with stucco. The interior fireplace will probably get a woodburning stove or insert. The exterior fireplace will get a fabricated insert that is open to the air. Both will have the chimney insert/lining brought to code so we don’t risk fire.
