Awkard and Small living space

12 years ago
I'm downsizing from a big 2 bedroom town home in Venice, CA to a small bungalow in Hollywood with character and a front yard. The common area (dining/living) is very small and kind of has an awkward set up. I'm obsessing over the best way to do it. I'm going to have all new furniture except my 50 inch tv so that is good. Attaching photos and 3d plan that i rendered. It's not totally the right size or scale, but you'll get the idea. The front door walks into the area with the bedroom quickly on the left after a small wall. There is a large window next to front door and another one on the opposite corner of the room with two smaller ones on that wall as well. Lots of windows!!!. the biggest wall is in the back next to the opening to the small kitchen. You might think there is another big wall between bathroom and bedroom but there is actually a closet and storage there.

Basically, I'm trying to figure out the best way to set up the room so it feels as big as possible and the tv isn't' in an awkward location. I'm thinking maybe reverse it and put tv on the far wall with a couch either opposite it or under the large window and set up a small eating area in the corner by the door. Also, how do you feel about classic, low profile leather couch in a space like this? I want to go for a masculine look but not as modern as normal since this space seems not to call for super modern.
