What about something like this? http://www.heater-store.com/original..._medium=Google
Looks simple, warm... BUT will ventilation be a problem? It's about as well ventilated as a garage...

Also, could a unit like that be moved out to my barn and used to keep a small area habitable in the winter while I was working? (dual purpose is always a plus)
The Mr. Heater in your link is one that I use outside. As Bob said, when you use a propane heater indoors you need good ventilation -- which may mean letting in more cold air than you want...
