Fireplace? I think not

 Okay, we'll start this with a little before and a not so after photo. On the left is what was sold to us as a fireplace. Now, as you may notice, on the right the door and window are gone and a fireplace is going onto this wall. After removing the carpeting, which was glued down (ugh) and the paneling we found some drywall. Someone used every scrap they had to do this job, but we managed to putty it all into place.

Oh, and notice the ceiling fan with no blades. That was an added bonus.
