Strange house that was built without fireplaces?

I was brought up in the NE of Scotland. Our house had an open fire in the
living room, and no heating anywhere else - certainly when I was little.
Later on there was an electric heater that could be used in other rooms -
if you were ill. ;-)

People these days...
