I had to buy a new fridge because the old one wasn't working. Unfortunately I couldn't find one that was small enough to fit properly inside the unit/cupboard the old one was housed inside, so had to take off the unit doors. It all looks a bit ugly now. Any ideas for a nice looking solution? I still have the doors so ideally those would go back on but I can't see how that would be possible.

Lot of work but you could uninstall the cupboard and move it forward and infill rear to accommodate FF.You could tile the infill to hide it.Remove any rear panels.

Get one of the doors cut and fit it above , can see predrilled holes for hinge backplates from here.
Needed integrated FF to fit in a cab
 
Take the back of the unit off and see if that gives you a few cm. then install a shelf on top and underneath to raise it up. But really you want a fitted fridge / freezer or two separate units.
 
American FF doors stick well proud of cabinet lines , last one I saw was 720 deep .
The doors are proud of the cabinets as not to restrict opening .
Tidy the missing door above an it shouldnt look to bad .
 
Should of bought an integrated, if you manage to house that freestanding FF and get the unit doors back on make sure there is plenty of ventilation for it, I.e vent in plinth otherwise it will overheat.
