Fire is for nighttime and entertaining, where windows are for light and mornings - alone or with the sunshine illuminating your lovely one.
I suggest putting the bed in between the closet and the far window. Put art above the bed that doesn't shout nor whimper, but moans/croons nicely; as the bed area ought to be a sacred/mysterious place.
The two fireplaces may have a big, shout-if-you-must piece of art between them, some floor pillows, rug perhaps, a couch facing and two chairs kneeling in.
That's my feel of the place.
I'm as perplexed as you insofar as the color. I rent a beautiful house that has been dumbed down with wooden paneling that I am not allowed to paint (though brick I would not readily paint). I have neutralised this "dad's den" effect with loads of plants, mirrrors, gold, blue (loves brown), and extraordinary lighting in high ceiling adoring shapes.
Just don't box yourself in with a 'color scheme'. I would die of boredom in a beige world.
