Corner fireplaces are a great option for rooms which are lacking usable wall space or if you want to direct focus to a different part of the room.
Let’s discover some living rooms with corner fireplace ideas together with their layouts.
1. Modern Living Room with Corner Fireplace
The fireplace in this living room occupies an outward corner so that it can be seen from two sides.
It is framed by neutral tiles which coordinate with other neutral-colored decor items in the room to establish continuity of style.
See the layout below.
2. Corner Fireplace in Cozy Living Room
This living room features a corner fireplace in an inward-facing corner of the space. The position of this allows for space on the main wall for a series of units that encompass an entertainment system.
If the fireplace had been positioned centrally on the wall, this would not have been possible. This shows how corner fireplaces can make wall space more usable.
See the layout below.
3. Outward Corner Fireplace
This fireplace is on an outward-facing corner of the living room, making use out of a corner wall that would have otherwise had no purpose.
The position of this fireplace within the room means that it can be a focal point despite not being in the middle of a wall. It has also freed up the long wall in the room to be used for a range of low units.
See the layout below.
4. Corner Woodburner in Mountain Lodge
This is an open-plan mountain lodge with a wood-burning stove installed towards one corner of the room.
A sofa has been positioned alongside it to create a cozy space to sit and enjoy the heat from the fire on cold days and nights.
You could position a woodburner right into the corner of a room, but in this instance, it is slightly removed from the corner to allow people to access the lodge through the glass doors.
See the layout below.
5. Classic Corner Fireplace
This living room features a corner fireplace in a classic, traditional style. It has been painted white to give it a contemporary look which complements the rest of the decor in the room.
Corner fireplaces like this are great for directing heat out into the middle of the room, and in this instance, two seating areas have been created close to the fire so that people using them can be kept warm.
See the layout below.
6. Living Room with Brick Fireplace
This room addresses the issue many people face of having to choose between their fireplace or their TV being the focal point in the space.
Here, the TV is positioned centrally on the main wall, which will allow people from any seat in the room to see it.
Meanwhile, the position of a fireplace on a wall is less functionally important, so it has been set in the corner on a brick chimney.

See the layout below.
7. Integrated Fireplace in Living Room
The fireplace in this living room has been integrated into a large unit on the wall, which is clad in tiles.
It is positioned in the corner of the room to allow for an entertainment system to be installed on the main wall; however, being in a corner means the fireplace can still be easily seen and enjoyed as one of the features in the living room.
See the layout below.
8. Contemporary Corner Fireplace
The fireplace in this living room is fixed to an outward-facing corner on one of the sidewalls, which has left the main focus wall available for other uses.
Here, a quirky display has been created on a shelving system, incorporating books, plants, ornaments, and art.
It is essentially a way for the owner to display all of the things that are important to them, so it makes sense that this should be the central feature of the room rather than the fireplace.
See the layout below.
9. Bright Living Room with Corner Stove
This living room benefits from lots of natural light thanks to the wall of windows; however, this large amount of windows means wall space is very limited.
As there is no appropriate place for an in-built fireplace, the solution is a wood-burning stove which has been positioned in the corner where it interferes least with the wall of windows.
See the layout below.
10. Custom Fireplace and Entertainment System
The corner fireplace in this living room has been built into a custom unit that also houses an entertainment system and features cabinets and shelves for storage.
The sofas are positioned in an L-shape facing the corner fireplace, which helps it to remain a focal point despite not being centrally located.
See the layout below.
11. Corner Fireplace Next to Windows
This living room features several windows and glass doors which make a nice feature and provide pleasant views.
If the fireplace was on the right-hand wall where the mirror is, then the sofas would have been facing towards it and therefore facing away from the views. By installing the fireplace in the corner next to the windows, it can be enjoyed as a focal point while also enjoying the views.
See the layout below.
12. Cozy Corner Fireplace
This room has windows along all of the exterior walls, which leaves little space for a fireplace. This issue has been resolved by positioning the fireplace in the corner and angling the sofa towards it.
See the layout below.
13. Stone Fireplace in Wooden Lodge
This cozy lodge has a fireplace in the corner between the windows and glass doors, with a corner sofa angled towards them.
This means that when seated, users can enjoy looking at both the fireplace and the views.
See the layout below.
14. Rustic Living Room with Corner Fireplace
The fireplace is situated in the far corner of this room, which works well because all other areas of the walls are being used.
By not positioning furniture in front of the fireplace, it remains the main feature.
See the layout below.
15. Corner Fireplace in Glass Walled Living Room
This stunning living room benefits from one wall made entirely out of windows, letting light in and providing lovely views.
The fireplace has been installed in the corner next to the windows, allowing both features to be enjoyed at the same time.
See the layout below.
