I would put it on the full wall NOT over the FP

By placing the TV on the large wall you can position it at the correct height and also have a larger screen

On the fireplace, Because the arrangement of furniture towards the TV and the fireplace at the same time is more beautiful and practical

IMO, only a painting or a fancy clock belong above a fireplace.

As for your setup, the wall is a much better place for the TV since you could easily arrange a home entertainment system around it there, while the FP will block many of those possibilities from the get-go

Really want to know? Get a FLOOR plan with all the dimensions of this model home. Think about how you like to sit. How about hubby? How large a tv , as huge is often the answer to that! Are you buying new furniture? Bringing furniture? How large is your family? How do you entertain?

Your question? I won't answer it here.Send in some more INFO.: )

If you are changing out the fireplace maybe you should wall in the right side opening and that would give you the perfect place to have the tv and fire side by side.

Where is your front door? I would say place the tv on the long blank wall (you will be able to see it while working in the kitchen, too!), but of the front door is around the corner to the left along that wall….maybe not. A floor plan??

IMO never above the FP f possible so the large wall is perfect . As for focal points face one sofa to the FP oe to the TV I love Besat fro IKea for TV and also a bit of storage and display The shelves and cabinet will need to be quite shallow to avoid blocking the doorways.

Anywhere but over the fireplace.

Over the FP works if you select a linear fireplace.

But that location limits the size of the screen you can buy. The larger wall allows you to get a large screen.

Not over the fireplace. Use the large wall to the left of the fp. A console underneath adds storage and “grounds” whatever size you buy and hang. See Beverly’s first photo.

Thank you all for taking out time to give suggestions. As advised by one of the Pros... posting the floorplan with measurements. Should have added this in original post along with pictures.
