The British Fires Winchester 1200 Electric Fire Suite combines the impressive panoramic flames of the New Forest 1200 electric fire with the balanced proportions of a traditional-inspired fireplace surround. Designed to complement both contemporary and classic interiors, the Winchester creates an elegant focal point while offering the convenience of modern electric heating.
With an overall width of 1530mm, the Winchester 1200 is the mid-sized model in the collection, providing a generous flame viewing area without overwhelming your living space. Available in four suite colours and three fire editions, it can be configured to suit your interior design.
Elegant, Symmetrical Fireplace Design
The Winchester is distinguished by its carefully balanced mantel-style design, featuring a substantial upper shelf and matching lower section. Unlike minimalist floating-shelf electric suites, its traditional-inspired proportions give the appearance of a complete fireplace.
The surround is manufactured from MDF and designed to frame the New Forest 1200 electric fire, creating a coordinated finish with clean architectural lines.
Its wide but understated appearance makes the Winchester 1200 an attractive addition to living rooms, reception rooms and open-plan interiors.
Four Suite Colours to Suit Your Interior
Choose from four contemporary finishes:
- Linen Stone: A soft, natural-looking finish that works beautifully with neutral furnishings and warm interior colour schemes.
- Carbon Black: A bold, dramatic finish for interiors where the fireplace is intended to make a statement.
- Flint Grey: A versatile grey finish that complements both modern and traditional decor.
- Pearl White: A light, elegant finish ideal for bright and understated living spaces.
All four suite colours are available at the same price.
Choose Your New Forest 1200 Fire Edition
The Winchester 1200 can be supplied with a choice of three British Fires New Forest editions, allowing you to select your preferred fuel-bed and flame presentation.
Signature Edition
The Signature Edition features the distinctive New Forest LED flame effect and a carefully arranged decorative fuel bed, creating a welcoming fireplace display.
Deluxe Edition
The Deluxe Edition introduces British Fires’ handcrafted Deluxe Real Logs. Created using genuine English oak, these logs feature natural textures, shapes and detailing that enhance the realistic appearance of the fireplace.
Black Edition
The Black Edition offers a premium fireplace experience, combining Deluxe Real Logs with a dark glass interior that enhances visual contrast and creates an impression of greater flame depth.
Realistic LED Flame Technology
The integrated New Forest 1200 electric fire uses advanced LED technology to create a striking, panoramic flame display.
The expansive viewing window allows the movement and detail of the flames to become a central feature of your living space, while the illuminated fuel bed adds atmosphere and realism.
With independent flame-only operation, you can enjoy the visual effects throughout the year without activating the heater.
1.5kW Heating with Air Curtain Technology
The Winchester 1200 features an integrated electric heater providing up to 1.5kW of supplementary warmth.
British Fires’ Air Curtain Technology distributes warm air into the room, helping maintain a comfortable environment during cooler weather.
Thermostatic control allows you to select a target temperature, while the supplied remote control makes everyday operation convenient.
Complete Electric Fireplace Without a Chimney
The Winchester 1200 is designed as a complete wall-mounted electric fireplace suite, removing the need for a traditional chimney opening, flue system or gas supply.
The integrated fire and coordinated surround provide a finished fireplace appearance, making it a practical choice for new installations and room renovations.
The suite requires a suitable supporting wall and an appropriate electrical connection. Installation must follow the manufacturer’s instructions, including all necessary ventilation and safety clearances.
