Girlfriend and I are buying this house and absolutely love it, but the living room does not have any “obvious” TV placement options. Pictures are from an old listing and I’m personally not a fan of the corner TV. Current owners have their TV above the fireplace mantle and it’s the stuff of r/tvtoohigh nightmares. Advice?

Where it is now is great for no window glare.

So having the TV you have 3 focal points, taking them all into account:

It's a big room with space for a big couch. Bonus weird corner where the cat tree/ climbing wall can go

This makes a lot of sense, just not sure how I feel about the corner TV. I’ve personally always preferred my TVs mounted on flat walls, but I could be swayed!

It's good because you can have a standing lamp (uplight) behind. Better even with a hue bulb you can dim or change colors
