Some smaller TVs are DC powered, but not many are powered with 12V DC. The DC powered ones have a brick that takes AC and converts it to DC but often at 19V like laptops. Some years ago I searched the Best Buy inventory and finally found an AC to 12V DC powered TV. I cut off the brick and wired it directly to the DC system on my boat. For all I know there may not be any 12V DC TVs any more.
Probably the simplest but maybe not the most elegant way is to use a small dedicated inverter for your TV. Check the TV's power rating and if it is less than about 100 watts you can use a cigarette lighter plug-in model. Otherwise you will have to run DC wiring from your power center or battery to the inverter. Then just plug the TV's power cord into the inverter's AC socket.
Thinking more specifically of the 24.1, the LR TV is right above the entry door, so taking power directly from the battery which is under the steps shouldn't be too difficult. You can mount the inverter inside the overhead cabinet aft of the door. Perhaps the outlet that powers the TV is inside that cabinet so it might be fairly easy.
Thinking about your other AC needs like the tea kettle, I would just start the generator or use the gas stove. The fans you are speaking of must be portable AC fans. I would install some DC fans such as are made for boats. Here are a couple of pages of them-

And FWIW, you and I are obviously seriously looking at the 24.1. I am going to wait until late winter for this market to settle down before doing anything. And it will definitely be a 2018+.
