Here's what the living area looks like if you stand by the door to the patio instead of the main door when you take the picture.
You will notice that there is totally a guitar just sitting there on a stand in the living room, even though there is a dedicated Guitar room. I've been told that it will be OK if I still want to practice on the couch.
The guitar room will be set up so that I can do recordings and videos without having to either make sure nobody watches TV and breathes or waiting until the early morning when I can do it without requiring those things.
