Every player needs a base to call home, but building something snazzy can be tedious when trying to get out there and loot the world! So, today, we are exploring ten breathtaking Minecraft house build guides that are both easy to follow and guaranteed to make you stand out.

Ten Breathtaking Minecraft House Build Guides

10: Hobbit Hole

Just because a base was built in the ground doesn’t mean it can’t be beautiful as well! Hobbit Hole by Typface shows how to build the famous homes of Lord of the Rings’ Hobbits while also personalizing it and making it functional. Just don’t be surprised if a wizard shows up with an odd adventure in mind.

9: Modern House

One way to stand out on a server is to build something entirely modern such as this fancy house by HALNY. It uses many of Minecraft’s more underappreciated blocks to really pop but ensures the build itself is still easily completable in the early game. It also isn’t overly large, which makes it a quick build perfect for those who prefer Minecraft’s other avenues of play.

8: Fairy Cottage

For those with a more whimsical taste, fairy cottage by Munkei combines fantasy and function to create a home at its best when surrounded by trees. Countless small details are showcased in the guide that, as a whole, make it hard to believe the final product is from Minecraft at all. The resource pack used throughout the video is Mizuno’s 16, but the build itself still looks great in vanilla.

7: Dark Fantasy House

On the opposite side of the fantasy spectrum, Dark Fantasy House by Seicraft showcases an imposing yet magical-looking structure that would befit any wizard or witch. The guide includes a full interior setup, and the house itself does not require an overly large selection of blocks. Perfect for beginners! Its just a shame there is no dungeon as a basement.

6: Cozy Cherry House

A Minecraft house is not a home until it is cozy! Thankfully, we have Cozy Cherry House by Polar Cat with a build guide on how to achieve just that. The Cozy Cherry house, made mainly of pink and white, works well both in and outside of cherry groves and showcases just how well pink and white blocks go together. And, much more importantly, it is very cute!

5: Ultimate Survival House

Playing optimally doesn’t mean that a base can’t be stunning, too, and the proof of this is in Ultimate Survival House by Blockical. The house is built with plenty of space for Minecraft’s various features such as alchemy and enchanting and the resources required are very common allowing for quick early-game completion. Farms are also included as part of the build, so consider food solved as well.

4: Japanese Inspired House

The many blocks of Minecraft make builds from any culture possible, including Japan. Japanese Inspired House by MrMattRanger showcases exactly how this is done in a way that it can be applied to other structures as well. Further yet, the build itself is gorgeous and looks even better with some cherry blossom trees at its side.

3: Treehouse

We have explored houses on the ground, but what about one up in a tree? Treehouse by Mia Bloom is one of the best-looking treehouses to be found, and it manages to incorporate every aspect of the tree, with the entrance being in the trunk on the ground. Back up in the canopies, multiple huts serve as both living and workspace with balconies where arrows can be fired at intruders. Truly the perfect home for an elf!

2: Giant Mansion

For those who want something a little bigger than your standard house, Giant Mansion by FlyingCow offers just as its name would suggest: a giant mansion! This sprawling piece of luxury has more room than any player could ever need, water features, and even a mowed lawn. We personally recommend giving it a go with friends, as there is more than enough room for everyone to live inside.

1: Medieval Castle

Finally, we have a castle so large the tutorial is over twenty parts! Anyone who takes the time to build this house will be the star of their server. Or is it better to say king or queen? In either case, the build incorporates both wood and stone giving the castle a realistic feel. Its immense size also means that there is plenty of room for any survival features, storage, and, of course, the hidden room with all the gold.
