It's all a question of money. Ideally, you would completely tear everything out, insulate, install new windows, cut channels in the screed for underfloor heating. Then calculate and install a suitable heat pump (sounds like a large property, so as a ground source heat pump with a horizontal trench collector). While at it, install a decentralized ventilation system with heat recovery. (All buzzwords you can google)
You probably don't want to or can't do that.
There are water-bearing wood stoves. They heat the room they are in directly, and indirectly a storage tank in the basement with warm water.
There are pellet stoves, with which you could replace the wood stoves. But pellets cost money and are worse in terms of CO2 than wood.
There are log wood boilers that burn large amounts of wood at once, transferring the energy to a storage tank in the basement, from which you can then draw.
There are ceiling heating systems in drywall construction. Warm water is pumped through a suspended drywall ceiling. Basically like underfloor heating, but without cutting channels in the screed. Can be done with sufficient room height and no stucco.
All in all, quite a lot of work and mess, because you really won't avoid centralizing the heating supply.
