Electric Fireplace Marble Surround Accent Wall Adds Luxury to New Construction

Homeowners Alex and Felecia recently shared details of their new luxury home construction, including the marble accent wall featuring a Touchstone® Electric Fireplace. With a focus on the very best quality, Georgia builder Cox Classic Homes brought the couple's dream home to reality in the resort-style Traditions Golf and Country Club.

Alex shares, “For our home build, we selected high-end finishes throughout: Kichler® lighting, quartzite countertops, tile bathrooms, and a mix of brick with Hardie® Plank siding. The centerpiece is the warm, wood-focused oasis we created, and the Touchtone® electric fireplace plays a big role in that atmosphere.”

Upscale, Sophisticated Fireplace Style

In the living room, Alex’s builder created an upscale media accent wall complete with a 60-inch Touchstone Sideline Elite® Pro Electric Fireplace. This focal point features arched alcoves with built in cabinets, an elegant marble fireplace surround, solid wood mantel and a wall mounted flat screen television.

Alex explains, “The fireplace pairs beautifully with the marble surround and flanking quartzite built-ins, complementing the upscale materials and the sophisticated look we wanted to achieve,”
