Last year I moved into a new home. It amazes me how many of us here have moved to a new home in the past year or two. AND have questions similar to yours.
Manny, when I first took over my little space in my new home, I was terrified, but happy to finally have my own space. I have two window walls to deal with. It was the only "my own" space I could monopolize. I have ceramic tile set on concrete with drywall everywhere else. It has worked out fine. Thick rugs for me, some sound absorption, a bass trap and I am still considering how to work the ceiling. My ceilings are nine feet on one side and almost ten on the other, drywall/plaster - reflective.
You might take Dennis' response and just start adding some movable (DIY? Maybe?) acoustic panels. Move them if you see fit, using what you can hear as a guide at first.
There are many here with far more knowledge and experience in setting up a listening room than I have. I feel certain that many will chime in and offer something useful.
Is there any way you can use "Paint" or some kind of drawing software to create a basic outline with walls, windows, doors, stairs, furniture etc?
Your mearsuring already gives me the feeling that there is much you can do to help balance your room for better acoustical response.
I was terrified that this would NEVER work when I first moved in, but I have had some great listening times with my iffy room, after some work.
I wish you good luck and congratz on the new home!
