The home is listed as it being a bedroom. It does have heat, power and a closet.
The maximum allowable height for the window sill (not the 'sill', but the 'bottom of the opening') is 44" above the floor.
The minimum opening size is 5.0 sq ft, and 21" by 32" = 672 sq in / 144 = 4.67 sq ft.
The window is both too high and too small.
What about a window well outside (it's a basement)?
What about natural ventilation (4% of the area of the room) and natural light (8% of the area of the room)?
