Start with a room heat-loss assessment rather than a simple floor-area rule. Insulation, ceiling height, windows and ventilation all affect the required output.
Freestanding Multi Fuel Appliances for Living Spaces
A stove should fit the room's heat demand as well as its fireplace. MacBlair lists freestanding multi-fuel appliances, including the Mazona Ive Eco model, in its plumbing and heating selection. The product specification, not the outside dimensions alone, sets the heat output and fuel choices.
Check the rated output against room heat loss, then measure the hearth, chimney position and clearances to combustible material. A multi-fuel label does not mean every fuel is approved. Use only the fuels named in the appliance manual, and check the local smoke-control position before buying.
A competent installer should assess air supply, flue diameter, liner and terminal, and commission the appliance. Build a carbon monoxide alarm and chimney sweeping into the plan. If the aim is to heat radiators throughout the home instead of one room, compare the boiler selection before committing to a layout.

Possibly, but a competent installer must check its condition, size, liner and draw against the appliance requirements.
Use a competent stove installer who can assess the hearth, ventilation and flue, then commission and document the installation.
