Also, I just saw the sofa thread under this! I’m open to any recommendations!

A sectional that is 9 ft. in each direction could work. You could add another seat if you move the sectional to the wall.

Two sofas or a sofa and two chairs gives you more flexibility. A 7-ft sofa and two club chairs can fit most rooms of your size.

Agree with Diana. I won’t sit on a sectional unless I can sit by one of the ends. Whole lot of wasted space in the middle.

Wow! Thank you so much!!!! Would you recommend the two sofas sitting like an L and the chairs parallel to one of them?
If the sectional was used, do you think it should be facing a certain direction? Should it be closer to the wall or centered?

Again, thank you SO much!!!!! I truly appreciate your time and insight!

Though one arm isn't on, what about keeping yours, which has a 'fit' with dark metal and wood around. If you like wood as accent, could be...

checking: on only wall without windows - if you like mural / accent wall could be a subtle or lively look...

I have actually wanted to do an accent wall where the fireplace is but no joke, I overthink everything (which is why I still don’t have art or curtains up). I know it will be more permanent and I’m always worried..what if I don’t like it.

We have Brazilian cherry wood floors…and restaining them is not budget friendly. They are my worst enemy!

Ok I just read your post and you are not unusual. Also, why are the wood floors so bad? is it a similar stain to the fan, which is ok.... with grey that you have, wood can be an accent ?

Maybe a deep, sort of gem color with your cherry floor? - could be that with your white amount in nearby kitchen, that bit of pretty color like these pillows would work.

Personally, I would move the TV to the wall where you have the shelving units. This gives you two focal points for the room. Then you can have a sofa between the two windows on the long wall facing the TV and another facing the fireplace. Add a coffee table and a couple of occasional tables and lamps. Then dress your windows.

I don't think 2 sofas AND 2 chairs will work--the room isn't large enough.

So you replacing the carpet with carpet so the dog can tear it again. IMO carpet is a huge turn off if you ever want to sell. The TV above the FP is so wrong in that space when you have a huge wall that could have a beautiful TV , storge and display furniture like Besta from Ikea if budget is an issue. As for the sectional IMO the most eaxpensive way to buy the least number of comfy sets arm rest=comfort so on any size sectional you have 2 arm rests all the rest of the seats are not only lined up but all of them are like the dreaded middle seat of a sofa . A sofa and 2 chairs gives you 4 comfy seats and 5 in a pinch I do not think you have space for a 2 sofas and 2 chhairs but that will depend on the size and style of the pieces .

We actually wanted to replace the carpet with hardwood but sadly we can’t get it to match (the floor is discontinued). Since that is the only carpeted area, it’s much cheaper to replace the carpet.
And in my dogs defense, he was a puppy and my teens were watching him. He is still a young dog, but he is much more behaved.
I really wanted to move that TV as well! I haven’t been able to convince my other half but I will beg and plead…hopefully getting my way!

Thank you again for all of your help!
PS I love the Besta cabinets! Actually I like a lot of their cabinets! (Very sleek and affordable!)

TV on wall above a long low cabinet of some kind not above fireplace. Much better for watching not looking up. Swivel chairs by fireplace. Very nice space.
