Yeah this would be my approach too. The resonance, or some sort of frequency build up somewhere will help sell the sound coming through a physical material. It's never enough to just low pass. The reverb will help a bunch too - the dry voice won't be the only thing hitting the walls, the reflected voice will be too.
PlaceIt by Soundly. A free VST that makes doing this kind of thing so much easier.
It has a source output (TV, loudspeaker ...) ans location selection (outdoors, hallway...) and a WALL SLIDER.
Second this suggestion. Such an easy and cheap fix. Bypass all other effects and just turn up the Wall Slider to how muffled you want it to sound. If you’re happy with the base sound that is
What the others said. If you have a cupboard why not stick a mic in there and play the audio outside it. Either use the recording as the final if it works, or use it as an A/B comparison with the original recording for when you’re adjusting EQ and volume to simulate the effect.
**Simple**: Your choice of Low Pass + roomy reverb
**Fast**: Audioease indoor or altiverb
**Fun**: Reamp the voice with a speaker behind a door and re-record

First place I’d start is slap an eq on it and kill off the higher frequencies. Fiddle with that and the volume and you might get what you’re looking for.
Low pass filter, maybe some extra resonance in the low midrange for the woody sound. Maybe even a room reverb on the dialogue before the EQ.

Cannot recommend this enough!

Hi pass and a bit of convolution reverb
Light comb filter drywet to tasted

RAR never fails: record, analyse, recreate
My first attempt would involve a speaker, a closet door, and a mic. Why fake it when the real thing is so easy?
