Are you planning on insulating the building? If not, I would insulate it, it probably wouldn't freeze in there until Christmas to start with. I have a 36x40 shop that I keep above freezing with a hanging propane furnace, and heat with a double barrel stove. I have a ceiling fan other end from the stove that rolls the air, stays on all winter. Even on days when I'm not working in there I build a fire just to keep the furnace off. I bank it up with about a foot of snow and about 10 ft out, that really helps. Only have the propane furnace on from Dec.through Feb. or so. Takes about 150 gals of propane and 1 1/2 to 2 cords of wood. Thinking of making the south wall a big solar panel this summer, I thing that would keep it from freezing or maybe more, should have done it years ago. Thinking of just building a cheap panel out of fiberglass panels and paint it all black, drill holes and let it thermosiphon into the building. I can't handle non vented heat at all.
