[quote=Anonymous]My house is '71 (a rancher) and you walk right into our formal living room too, but it's small. We already have a big family room so it's not as critical of a space for us. We are doing board and batten as you walk in and building a bench with baskets underneath for shoe storage and hooks above bench. Sort of a mini mudroom. Ours does have a fireplace and we have a couch, coffee table and chair and I don't feel we need a TV at all. We also have a big window that I've thought of doing some sort of built in bench seating down the road. If your family room isn't cutting it for larger gatherings, I would definitely make a larger seating area in this living room. Also you could always have some sort of cabinet that could hide a TV if you don't want it out all of the time. [/quote]
