The way that finally worked for me was standing at the door, using ctrl to line it up and shift+mouse wheel to face it the right direction.. this method took me one try after about 20 mins of trying everthing else including the center it and move one step into the wood.

Good luck!

I have recently built a few stoves, so it can be done. I use enders, so i place the grid over the cutout area of the house (ctrl L). Next, I take the stove ghost icon and use a the ctrl + mouse (or is it ctrl+shift+scroll up/down?) to rotate and fine tune exactly where to place the stove. I do not use the snap to grid function, but instead the option which allows exact placement wherever i mouse over, and in whatever direction i choose. After a few attempts, no more than 2 or 3, you should have success. I noticed that the ghost image should be slightly toward the inside of the room (away from wall) and not perfectly inside the 2-space cutout. A combination of these tricks should help you succeed with your new stove placement.
