Is it going to face the wall/FP? Make sure it is 24" less in width than the rug. Can you post pictures of the entire room? thanks

Window side, otherwise you will always have an obstacle to walk around. Better idea for a small space like that is a Bumper Ottoman, which mimics a chaise but its not attached so it can be moved around.

You'd be far better off with a sofa and separate ottoman. The unit you picture is way too bulky for your space.

I love a sectional in a big space but that is not what you have. Based on the pic a sectional would overwhelm the space

No other seating in the room huh?

Beverly, there will be other seating. I just moved in a few days ago. The wooden chest is not staying.

I appreciate the input on no sectional but that’s not the question at hand 😜 I already measured it, it will work, and I have my heart set on it so that’s what I’m doing! I know it’s a small space 🙂

Everyone says window side to not close off the space, which makes sense to me, but for some reason I don’t mind it and kind of like the idea of sectioning it off with it on the other side

I’d risk closing off the space by putting the chaise on the left, not on the window side. I think it will create a nicer feel to the room to not have anything in front of the window.

Where will the tv be located?
