Like others, I have a large dining room table and china hutch in the dining room that sits unused except for maybe 2 dinners a year and poker night twice a year. Someday I hope to repurpose that space to make it more functional.
We have the "living room" portion of the large front-to-back living space in our Lantana furnished with two sofas facing one another with a cocktail table between them, just inside the sliders. We have had the TV in that area, but recently did some modest re-furnishing of the "dining room" area, with casual chairs, side ables and lamps, and the big screen mounted on the wall.
