Thanks for the reply Ken. We are moving into the house next month, so I cannot be certain. It's a 2005 build. I know many walls are plasterboard on studding, although this is an external wall in essence that has a brick garage on the other side. I dont think its dot n dab.
Miket0812 good evening, again.
OK understood.
Suggest you consider.
1/. If the wall is plasterboard on stud?? you could form a hole directly behind the TV then a similar hole just under the work surfaces, provided there is no back on the base unit?? and that there is not a high level noggin between the timber uprights so that you could?? [using some sort of a fish wire] fed the cables down the void, then distribute as you need inside the floor unit.
Or.
2/. Simply drill a hole right into the garage, start the hole as you would have in 1/. above, then with some careful measurements bore back in from the garage side into the back of the base unit, or wherever you needed it to go. Within the garage, you will need to fireproof the cables, two layers of non asbestos fire proof board on to and all around a pair of timber battens.

You could do a floating panel up the middle. Mine is wood but they look good with split face tiles on as well.
The wires for mine I had buried in the walls when we first moved in but the tv looked lost against the wall. Wife would t get a bigger tv so we opted to do the panel to break the wall up a bit.
Would hide all the wires easy enough and make the tv look more flush
