Looks like wallpaper on everything. Smart move: before you move in, remove wallpaper. It's so much easier in an empty room! Prep walls and paint with white primer. THEN decide what you want to do color-wise. Test out some colors on the walls to see what works with the light.
You might as well reconcile yourself to either painting or recladding the fireplace. Painting it would be easiest and fastest (and economical). Check with experts about what it takes. If you plan on using hte FP, it will require certain paints. Once you decide on a color scheme, then you can decide what color to paint that brick and whether you want it to be a focal point or ignored (sort of hard to do).
GIven that it's a narrow room in relation to its length, smaller scale furniture would work better. Loveseat instead of a huge sofa. If you have/plan a recliner (personally, I hate the things, but that's just me), there won't be much room left for more seating. If you plan on a huge sectional sofa, you won't need much else. If this is where you're going to put the TV, likely you'll use this room more than a living room, so seating should be planned around the number of family members. GIven the length, perhaps a rectangular table with seating at the end opposite the FP. I'd float the sofa/loveseat across the room, facing the FP, not along a wall. Good luck and congratulations! You're going to have so much fun!
