@fleshjenn First, I think it is a beautifully successful double purpose small lot. And, I absolutely agree with @suzses about sometimes just accepting the asymmetry and using furnishings/landscaping to visually balance the results. But, specific to this build, I do have a few comments.
First, the curtains interior next to the large window; were they just randomly placed during the build process? Because there doesn't seem to be a window there. Second, I would absolutely move that wall just one space over from the large window. The front wall will still be asymmetrical, but the window won't be directly juxtaposed to a wall on the interior. Finally, I think the other front facing window seems to work fine where it is, both from the interior and the exterior. It may be different from a full on frontal view. If you really wanted to move it toward the outer wall, I would recommend a double sliding door against the interior wall instead. For my own design aesthetic, a double slider works better directly against a wall better than a double window. I don't know why! It is a silly thing that I couldn't possibly justify. But, you asked for input, so....
Regardless, it is a great build and I look forward to seeing it finished.
