We bought a Familia 6 last year and have been very happy with it. Here's a thread I made about it back then.

The 2m deep canopy is great as a cooking and dining area, I'm not sure 1.5m would be enough. Only issue with the size is it will sag a bit no matter how well you peg it out. It could use a pole or two running along the top to keep it tight.
I don't remember there being eyes on the blinds to guy them out, but we didn't have any ventilation issues.
We used our old Icarus 500 carpet. Way too small, but it covers most of the usable area.

We have a Palamos 6 with a 1.5m porch; not really useful as anything more than a boot shelter. I'd go for the Familia 6 in your situation. Other than that, Obilink tents are great value for money.

The Nevada tents have been available for some years so it is a tried and tested design. And I think you are right that tent plus an extension gives you a range of choices. I think you have made a good decision!
