Using iphone like a landline

I have a two-story house, and want to eliminate my landline and just use my iPhone, but don't want to have to carry it from room to room. Is there a device that will allow remote answering and calling so I can make/receive calls on the iPhone without having it in the same room (or floor) with me? If it could work for multiple iPhones, that would be good too!

iPhone XS, iOS 14

All of the iPhones must be logged in to the same Apple ID. All of the iPhones must also be logged on to the same Wi-Fi Network. Wi-Fi Calling must be activated on all of the iPhones. Add WiFi Calling for Other Devices must be set to ON.

Yes, you can set the iPhones up the way you want to without any additional equipment. All iPhones will ring if set up properly.
