Elmstead Blue 88 in. Credenza with Electric Log Fireplace

Yes, the innovative electric fireplace is designed for maximum versatility. Using the included remote control, you can activate the realistic 3D flame and glow effects independently of the heating element. This feature is particularly beneficial for homeowners in warmer coastal or southern climates who want the cozy, heritage-inspired ambiance of a hearth without increasing the room's temperature.

This unit is built for convenience and safety, featuring a dedicated remote control that allows you to adjust flame levels and glow intensity from across the room. It also includes a built-in timer, which is an essential feature for evening use. This allows you to enjoy the calming 3D flame effects as you wind down, knowing the unit will automatically power off at your selected time for added energy efficiency and peace of mind.

This console provides a sophisticated blend of open and concealed storage. It features four upper drawers designed to keep media essentials and remotes neatly organized and out of sight. Additionally, the glass-front cabinets on either side allow you to display cherished items or store media players while protecting them from dust. The glass panels are also practical, as they typically allow infrared remote signals to reach your devices without needing to open the doors.

The softly distressed blue finish and transitional design—featuring classic molding, framed details, and turned bun feet—offer a versatile "heritage-inspired" look. It is an excellent choice for coastal-themed homes looking for a sophisticated pop of color that mirrors the sea, or for traditional spaces needing a "new heirloom" feel. The distressed finish is also a practical choice for high-traffic households, as it naturally masks minor wear and tear over time.

With an expansive 88-inch width, this console is designed to accommodate the largest consumer televisions, including most 85-inch and even select 98-inch models. To maintain a balanced aesthetic, we recommend ensuring the console is at least a few inches wider than the TV screen. This substantial scale makes it an ideal centerpiece for large living rooms or open-concept floor plans, providing a grounded, proportional look for high-impact home theaters.
