id try some decent curtains, or some of the window film to see if it makes a big difference before you make a big adjustment.. how old are the windows?

The house was built in the 1960s and a couple of the windows are original. So literally anything would be an improvement on what we have lol

id definitely consider doing some of the film to hold yourself over. its not the greatest looking stuff, but who cares. it will save you hundreds just dealing with it the rest of this year.

that or even get some quality full coverage curtains for the original windows, and getting in the habit of keeping your blinds closed when you arent in the room.

we have a pellet stove, but we can literally cut the amount of fuel we burn in half by keeping blinds shut vs open.

i know you didnt ask for this advice, but it might help you out.
