While I agree a CMMonitor is a good idea don't make the comments scare you. Just make you alert.I've lived with coal fires, log burners and gas fires with none of todays ventilation and survived 70yrs on it lovely and warm and cosy.

Check around for draughts, if windows are showing problems like that try caulking rope as temp fix.
Boiler and fire service.
Apart from that as others have said enjoy your home for a year before planning any big expenditure.
Make sure you search for a decent branded CO (carbon monoxide) alarm. Fireangel are a good brand.Signature on holiday for two weeks1 -

Although CO2 is not as benign as you imply.There is always plenty of signs telling you to vacate the premises sharpish if in a room or installation that has a CO2 fire suppression system in place.1 -
