JD is right. My basement room ended up being similar to your basement room. There is nothing you can do about the ceiling, but the other rooms are too compromised. The upstairs of a 1 1/2 story house is going to reflect way too much info right back at you.

The basement being unfinished allows you to build a room that takes all of the problems into account. The room can be finished without giving up much if any ceiling height.

Good luck.
