Chesneys Shoreditch 5WS MK3 Wood Burning Stove
The Chesneys Shoreditch 5WS MK3 Wood Burning Stove delivers a contemporary heating solution that combines clean-burning performance with a refined, architectural design. Chesneys developed this model for homeowners who want strong efficiency alongside a modern aesthetic, while still relying on the warmth and atmosphere of a real wood fire.
Its balanced proportions and understated styling allow it to fit naturally into both contemporary interiors and renovated period spaces. It works well when set into a feature wall or installed within a traditional fireplace opening, where it creates a confident focal point without overpowering the room.
Because it carries DEFRA exemption, homeowners can legally install and use the Shoreditch 5WS MK3 in smoke control areas across all major towns and cities in the UK, which increases flexibility when planning a new installation.
High-Efficiency Heating with Low Emissions
The Shoreditch 5WS MK3 provides dependable warmth while maintaining strong combustion efficiency.
The stove delivers a nominal heat output of 4.9kW and operates within a heat range between 3.5kW and 7kW. This flexibility allows homeowners to use it comfortably in a variety of room sizes, from well-insulated living spaces to larger open-plan areas.
The stove also achieves an efficiency rating of 86.4%. This helps convert more fuel into usable heat and reduces overall fuel consumption during everyday use.
In addition, the Shoreditch 5WS MK3 produces just 0.7 grams of smoke per hour. This extremely low emissions level sits well below current DEFRA requirements and reflects the stove’s advanced combustion design.
As a result, homeowners can enjoy strong heating performance while maintaining cleaner and more environmentally responsible operation.
Contemporary Design with Strong Visual Presence
The Shoreditch range focuses on clean, modern design, and the 5WS MK3 continues this approach with simple lines and carefully balanced proportions.
The larger glass viewing window enhances the flame picture, creating a strong visual focal point that adds warmth and atmosphere to the room even at lower heat settings. This makes the stove particularly effective in minimalist interiors where subtle detailing and clarity of design are preferred.
At the same time, the stove also works well in more traditional settings, especially when homeowners want to introduce a modern feature without disrupting the overall character of the space.
Whether installed as part of a contemporary architectural design or a classic fireplace renovation, the Shoreditch 5WS MK3 adapts easily while maintaining its distinctive identity.
Installation Flexibility and Practical Considerations
The Shoreditch 5WS MK3 offers flexible installation options to suit a range of home layouts.
The stove measures 492mm wide, 663mm high, and 367mm deep. When fitted with the optional heat shield, the depth increases slightly, which also improves installation flexibility in tighter spaces.
Rear clearance to combustible materials measures 300mm, while side clearance requires 400mm. However, homeowners can reduce these distances by using a heat shield or insulated flue system, depending on the installation setup.
Professional installation helps ensure correct positioning, safe operation, and efficient long-term performance. Careful planning also helps integrate the stove effectively into the overall room design.
Designed for Modern, Efficient Living
The Shoreditch 5WS MK3 combines contemporary styling with strong efficiency and low-emission performance, making it well suited to modern homes.
It delivers a practical heating solution that balances output, environmental performance, and visual appeal. Because of this, it works especially well in living spaces where both design and functionality are equally important.
Overall, the Shoreditch 5WS MK3 offers a refined balance of warmth, efficiency, and modern aesthetics for today’s homes.
