you'll notice how bad/good your screen is from that distance ... so i'd invest in a good one
i've read the rule of thumb for optimum distance is 10:1 ... 60" would be 6 feet... etc.

with those you will see the surface of the screen (kindalike a mesh/grid material)
after a while you get used to it.. i'd be more concerned with being able to see the whole screen at the same time from that close.

5-6", I'd go for a 42"....even 50" is pushing it.

46" in full HD is just about right w/ that distance...ull get annoy with the non-high def. materials though
