How and where can I put a wood stove in the bonus room? It is located on the first level. Plans are below.

I want to do a mini bar under the stairs and TV in the wall adjacent to the bed room. Open to suggestions.

Unfortunately the opportunities for a straight up chimney aren't good. It looks like the upper right corner of the bonus room with an exterior chimney would work. I would open up the stairwell wall in at least one stud bay to promote convection upstairs. Then place the stove where it works best for you.
