Lots of questions... What is your current heat source? What is your climate?
An RMH in a little-used basement is a bad idea. It needs to be in a place where it will be easy to see and tend, and it will be much less effective in a remote location. Between kitchen and living room is good. It would not do much for BR1 and master BR at least. BR3, BR4 and W bath might be okay. If you already have hydronic heat, a supplemental heater embedded in the RMH mass might be a good solution. We need more info for a good answer.
