Help with L-Shaped Living/Dining Room Layout

Hello,

I’m looking for some advice opening up my living-room. Currently, I find the space to be quite “closed-in” and cluttered upon entering our home. If we didn’t require a TV in this space, I’m sure I could make it work; unfortunately, that’s not an option. You’ll also notice a great deal of children’s toys, etc. We’re hoping to move the bulk of those downstairs soon.

Some things we’ve considered are removing the small entry wall, although we don’t know If it’s a load-bearing wall. We’ve also thought about installing a large built-in that spans the entire living room wall and includes a gas fireplace (with the TV above) and lower cupboards and upper shelving on either side. Aside from the couches, all of the furniture is second hand or gifted so I’m not overly attached to anything (including the couches). I’m interested in any and all suggestions!

Thank you!
