Long story short, considering removing the AC component of furnace, installing Mini split with dual room cooling. Not a huge space, a medium window unit can keep it cool enough in the main space, so assuming BTUs is non issue.
I'm in Ohio, and external unit would be on a north wall that gets real weather.
Any advice/guidance appreciated.

Why not run an external copper line? When we replaced our AC units, they had to switch to the "New" Freon, one of the lines installed in the house was too small. They ran a new line and the small portion that would have been visible was installed in a conduit cover.
