depends. wood stoves put out a metric shitton of heat, no matter how hot their surroundings. the more of it you capture, the less wood you need. we have a massive old stone oven that takes a week to heat up but then keeps above ambient for like two-three. it’s several m^3^ in size, the house is built around it. it also keeps the house cool in summer by absorbing heat.
