Can you share some pictures of the actual space? How high is to fireplace? How big is the room? I am sorry if this is on the plan I didn’t spot it.

EDIT - I didn't see ^^^^ comment before posting mine (I was interrupted while typing). Obviously, I agree with WCH re: seeing actual space and how high mantel is.

Would you mind adding some photos of the actual space?

Many people on Houzz do not like sectionals - they limit the furniture layout if you decide you want to change things + if you move, it may not work in your new space.

I actually planned on purchasing a sectional for my living room before I spent some time on Houzz. I decided to purchase one sofa + two wider (comfortable) chairs (not little accent chairs - ones that have flippable down wrapped cushions for seat and back just like the sofa). The chairs are just wide enough that my granddaughter and I are able to share one together - however, they are not a "chair and a half" style.

FYI - I love my down wrapped cushions - they are so comfortable. Also, they look the same as they did over four years ago - I just flip the cushions once every week or two = easy.

How high is your mantel? Many mantels are too high for a TV to be mounted above (based upon professional recommendations related to height of TV for optimum viewing + no strain on neck).

The room is 24 x 18 with 10’ ceiling

Thank you for the comments so far. Unfortunately I cannot provide additional pictures right now. It is new construction and do not have access to the house without appointments (which are limited).

I will say what I hate about sectionals. They are the most expensive way to buy the least number of comfy seats. Armrests = comfort. All the rest of the seats are like sitting in the middle seat on a sofa , no one wants that seat. A sofa and 2 chairs are great . I agree the TV on the wall where the 2 chairs are not above the FP ever unless that FP is a low horizontal on e planned from the beginning for the TV at proper viewing height .If a new build I would have not had the FP and TV in the smae space but too late now I guess. I would need a bit of info as how many seats do you NEED daily in thta space ?

Unlike others I am a huge sectional fan. My living room, with sectional is one of favourite spaces in the house. But our sectional is actually a sofa, chaise, ottoman that can all be reconfigured and come apart. So it’s very adaptable. Honestly until we know the height of the fireplace it’s hard to really say what is best.
