Open House Article for January 5, 2024 here

Due to the timing of the Christmas and New Year's holidays in 2023, there are fewer open houses this weekend compared to other times this year. However, thousands of listings remain on the market, and people are still on the move, including families with young children who wonder how Santa will find them without a chimney. Not to worry— the 16 selected listings below all feature fireplaces and have upcoming open houses for you to explore in case you have some extra time this holiday weekend.

Whether or not Santa Claus factors into your decision to invest in an apartment, fireplaces offer plenty of perks year-round. Firstly, they provide a natural and cozy source of warmth, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere in your living space. The flickering flames and crackling sounds contribute to a soothing and relaxing ambiance, especially enjoyable during colder seasons or festive occasions.

Fireplaces also typically serve as focal points in a room, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal. Available in various designs, from traditional to modern, they contribute to the visual charm of your home. A well-maintained fireplace can add to the home's resale value since many buyers appreciate the appeal and functionality it brings.
