I didn't like the archway painted black as much as I thought I would - so I painted it in fleckstone to match the rest of the rock...

Agreed, it looks great painted to match the stone, very nice~!
 
I also have a wood stove setting on hearth and love it and no surrounds.
In second pic you can see where I have a large metal sheet under stove legs to help distribute the weight of the heavy Vermont Castings Encore

I made my own block off plate after removing the damper and chipping out some firebrick to allow straight drop of 8 inch liner
