Assuming it has the average appliances, heating and cooling systems, electrical outlets, etc, 200 amps should pull it, depending on the heat and air conditioning systems used.

A 200 amp panel is the norm these days for an ordinary 2000 sq. ft. home. A home of 4700 sq. ft. would take a 400 amp service.

Calculations on a house sometimes can be complicated, assuming standard equipment and all electric, I came up with a load of 218 amps. You could then use a 250 amp service. Use gas for heating and you could fall around the 200 amp size.

How are the amperes for transformer calculated?

Find the wire from the secondary of the transformer. If it's a step-down transformer the thicker wire is the secondary. Measure its diameter in inches and calculate its cross-section area in square inches. The current rating for transformer wire is 1000 amps per square inch, or 1.55 amps per square mm.
