You could do something like this in your room.

@BeverlyFLADeziner you don't think the chair on the right hand side would be too close to the dining table? I am clearly not a designer - what program do you use to come up with that room setup?

Will there be a TV in this space? If so, I like Beverly’s arrangement but instead on 2 seats by fireplace, I’d put a chair and ottoman and reading lamp and drink table in the window corner by FP. Nice reading nook and will balance the off center. You could put a small table on dining room side of fireplace or even a stool that can pulled out for seating by LR area

Now that I see it, yes there will be a problem with the dining room and the lounge chair.

Your dining room table extends out beyond the limits of the room. Why is it so very oversized.

@Gcubed no there won't be a TV in this space. Thank you for your suggestions!

@BeverlyFLADeziner the table is a 79" x 39" 4 person table and it actually doesn't extend past the dining room area, I can totally see how it looks that way in the other photo. The dining room is 11'11" x 9'6" wide. The table is closer to the living room side as the light fixture is mounted off centre to accommodate room for a sideboard/allow space to walk around the end of the table on the other side - hope that makes sense. We have tried moving the table over the the right (closer to the other wall), and it still doesn't seem to alleviate the awkwardness of how close the fireplace is to the dining room window/dining room window. Please don't judge the dirty curtains... the dog puts his nose all over them. I hope this photo helps and maybe you have other ideas?

Tb, could we see what the other side of the living room looks like?

With Bevs configuration you could push all the furniture toward the fireplace, which after all, will be the star! You could use a loveseat instead of chairs if you want more seating, and it looks like you will still have adequate walkway space to the DR.

On the large wall possibly a gallery wall, console, or a large narrow display case. This would give you a defined seating area with the focus on the fireplace, which by the way is going to look fab, without breaking it up minor players.

If the other side of the living room is the entry, a console could be placed behind the loveseat/2 chairs.

Lovely home! Can we see the dining room too? (Excuse me for being such a design voyeur!)

@gigi4321 Here is the other side, and the entrance. What I have here is all just for the interim, I basically tidied up the space after the contractors left the other day and took some quick pictures - please don't judge my "styling" haha.

Tb, thanks for the additional photos. So, basically you already have a defined entry area. I still think you need to orient the main seating area around the fireplace, which will also center better with the window. I'm not a fan of filling space just because it's there.

But, you will have to fill the space behind the love seat/chairs if you push them forward.

Maybe a little game table and two small chairs or ? Others will have more ideas. Can you take a photo of the room from the entry table?

Great choice on the entry flooring.

please don't judge my "styling" Any room with a dog/cat in it is styled to perfection in my book! Also, good job matching him to your colors (black, white and brown) or matching your colors to him, either way, he fits right in!

I have the same problem with an off center fireplace. It is more noticeable when two sofas face each other. I have put them in an “L” shape facing the fireplace and this makes the problem much less noticeable.

@gigi4321 the first photo at the very top is taken standing in front of the entry table. If you look closely, there are 2 different dogs in the photos - one on the sofa and one by the dining table!
