Spiderwebs were all over the patio, fireplace, basement and ceilings.

One of my rental properties in Austin had a fire recently when tenants used fireplace.

I have pulled a permit for removing a fireplace, but probably would not have but I had a significant remodel going with permits and did not want hassle of him making an issue of removing the fireplace (the inspection for fireplace removal consisted of only verifying gas cap was in visible location, he did not even spray it).

Nice brick fireplace hiding behind some Sheetrock...

Trashy.I am also with @Lauren Kormylo on the wood burning fireplace.

Since you would be dealing with maintaining a gas tank I would have all electric except a gas fireplace.

Removed a fireplace.  

Real stone fireplace, quirky kitchen, a shower you could barely turn around in.

In the mountains it would be perhaps the view, the fireplace, or hot tub.
