Default Seasoning Wood in a Cellar

Is this a bad idea?

We have a small room in our cellar, about 4' square which I want to use
as a wood store. If I had a load of non-seasoned wood, would it be the
wrong place to store it while it seasoned? The room isn't ventilated
beyond a low level vent in the door and an air brick at high level
through to another similar sized room where the coal chute goes.

I could fit more ventilation if that is what would be needed, but it may
be easier just to buy seasoned wood.

Cheers

No, thats fine for basics green-to-seasoned planking etc., and for
firewood, but for joinery you really want it inside the central heating
zone a few months before cutting.
