Do you think this lounge layout is best - installing a new radiator so want to get it right

[LilMissSunshine9]

I have really struggled alot with room layout in my living room mostly because whilst it looks roomy when you try to put furniture in you realise they don't quite fit in the available space. I think I have got it right but would appreciate any feedback - especially since I need to get a radiator installed, it has been done right to avoid costly mistake.

On the plan the red box is where I am planning to put the new radiator and the blue is the hallway radiator.

I haven't bought a dining table yet but I have measured it out so it will fit in the space (planning on getting a white table)

I include two images - one shows where the sofa is at the moment (against the back wall). The width of the sofa is the same width as the wall I plan to put the radiator on.

Because my pipes are buried in concrete and the room upstairs has laminate flooring down the plumber has suggested the most cost effective installation is putting a join in the pipe of the radiator in the hallway and taking the pipes through the garage.

This is the radiator I have decided upon (vertical because of the wall it is going on is not suitable for a horizontal one)

What else do I need to buy that a plumber will not provide? a radiator valve?

I prefer your second link Primal - it will give me space to put all my dvds

This is the tv unit I was considering

suppose good thing is I can move it and swap it around as much as I like lol so if I don't like it I can just move it around - I suppose for winter there is hardly anything to look out onto so I could have the tv unit one way for the wintery months and during spring clean switch it round so I can enjoy the flowers

If you stick "tv sofa console" into Pinterest there are loads of ideas.

thanks will do :)

Hallway is huge and is really odd compared to the size of your reception rooms. If there were any way of changing this I would. Would put TV on opposite wall to how you have it and sofas / armchairs around that and patio doors. If possible I'd move the kitchen door to the bottom left corner of the kitchen and put the dining table where you currently have the armchairs. Personally I'd put the radiator to the left or right of the patio doors.
