Hi Beth,
What a great new house! If I were you, I would negotiate for the whole sunken living room as your studio space and set up a few zig-zag folding screens for privacy and separation from the staircase and entry hall. To help preserve the carpet, perhaps something like 4 x 8 sheets of 3/4 inch pressed wood panels could be tiled and taped together over the area you intend to place the easel (maybe with a plastic tarp spread beneath), to make a temporary hard smooth floor surface. Now you can paint and make a mess until you design another studio.
I am envious of your possibilities already. Next time I am out to visit my family farmstead just 2 miles east of Ohio (Rt 322 at the Pymatuning Reservoir), I may want to drive on out to see what you are up to in your stunning new studio.
Congratulations,
Garth
