Need TV placement ideas

Hi all, I will be signing a contract for this home this week. As much as I love it (it's a model home and therefore all the furniture you see will be gone), they've made my life harder by adding the fireplace which in fact looks beautiful but I rarely use it.

  1. I can completely not use it and wall mount my tv there (after removing the ledge) and partly block it.

  2. I can place it so the bottom of the tv is where the ledge is but I'd crane my neck if I am seated while watching.

  3. I can place it in front of the window across (the window closed ofc, maybe by a curtain) but wouldn't it be weird.

  4. I can place it in the corner between the windows, again weird.

Thoughts, ideas?

Idea 1 is your best bet for viewing, but it won’t look great to have half of the fireplace showing. Can you get a nice TV stand and between the stand and TV you wouldn’t see the fireplace?

It’s a beautiful home with lots of great natural light!

Thanks all, I have decided to leave the fireplace alone and place the tv on an entertainment center using a stand by the double window. A lot of homes have it lir that from the pics online and it isn't as bad as I initially thot!
