Family Room Design

My parents can use some help with furniture for their family room. Would the recommendation be a couch and an accent chair or two, a sectional couch? They also need a new tv cabinet. Thank you.

Do they USE the fire? Can you draw and measure the space and include the entire space, with the dining area. all the walls, the fire, the raised hearth....the window wall etc. Feet and inches for everything.

Is this space primarily used for TV watching and will that be the main focus of the new set up? Do they have visitors often? How many people do they need to seat and is seated conversation without a TV ever the goal in this space?

Lastly, how old are they and do they have any problems getting up and down - or will they during the life of this next furniture purchase? Sitting in chairs with 2 arms is much easier to raise an dlower youself.

Place the TV across from the fireplace. Here is a layout that could work for the room.
