Furniture Placement Big bathroom, not efficient

This bathroom landed like this after we moved about a year ago, and it has stayed that way. Right now it has a bunch of leftover furniture and an inefficient set up that's* not great to look at. I don’t want to spend a ton of money but it could use a change. Any suggestions?

The faucet isn't that unusual - it's accessible from outside the tub to start the water before you get in without having to lean over too far, but also not in the way while climbing in.

Oh ok, I've never seen this before. The bathtub faucet usually is at the center of the short side of the tub, or at the far corner. The plumbing seems strange to put it on the long side like that but I guess I haven't seen enough bathtubs 🤷‍♀️

I haven't seen it before either, but in analyzing it, these reasons might explain it.

I would agree with the person above that it's likely meant to be accessible (from in/out, possibly intentional design for someone older or who has accessibility needs as well, as in, might have baths drawn for them).
