Depends how long you're going to live there. If it's your family home so 10+ yrs then go for it, otherwise I'd buy a different toy. There may be a different fashion by the time you sell the place...

This is my dilemma. It's just me and my GF and a small hound at the mo, and can't see us staying for more than 5 years (i want a garage with associated toys)..... which is why i'm always thinking about value added to the house with any big spend.

5% to the value of your home.

A new Kitchen typically adds 5.8%

Typical kitchen cost, £8,000 and Dammit paid £5k for his wood burner so you could use that cost to base your ROI on.

I imagine it's close-ish because the fire will save you some money on heating.
