Value added by a working fireplace

Categories: Fireplace/Mantle

Appreciate your thoughts on how much value a working fireplace adds to a brownstone.

I’m renovating a brownstone in Park Slope and am wondering if its worthwhile to spend the money to make the fireplace work. We’re keeping the original mantle. We’re not planning on selling the house anytime soon.
