Where is the window, is that it to the right, it looks like an opening into another room

The window is above the bed; there's a window shade there now. Expanding the picture makes it more obvious. To the right is a door.

Could we see a closer pic of the window?

Yep over the bed - have a cheap shade on it for now to give some privacy but it looks really awful

Closer pic

OK, I see it now. It's an egress window. What does the other side of the room look like?

Exactly - is the egress window - hence the strange size and position. Have just put furniture in the room so all walls are bare. Directly opposite it is a wall and a door exiting to the remainder of the basement

Is there any way you can flip the room so that the sitting area is there instead? Then you could hang a ceiling to floor curtain. Very nice room.

Could you do a full wall curtain rod and use the curtains as a headboard instead of the small size shade emphasizing how awkward it is.

Thanks all - unfortunately can't flip room because not enough room on the opposite wall for the bed and room is too long and narrow to move it to one of the other walls.

Thanks. Full wall of curtains could work. Thoughts on maybe matching blind to paint color so window just blends into wall when blinds are closed?

I would mount rod from the ceiling and go wall-to-wall panels in front of the window.

I likey! Thanks

Finding something to frame the window may look odder since its off center and an egress. What you could do have a curtain rod go across that entire wall so that curtains (sheer or mix of sheer and light blocking) fall behind the bed. Im trying to find a pic to better describe what I mean.

BTW, it is a lovely room.

I like the idea of drapes floor to ceiling behind the bed in the same color as the drapes to the right in the phot.

Flo's idea is perfect! It's unexpected and a great solution!
