5 Starter Houses in Minecraft!

Hello my name is green and today i’m going to be showing you five different designs based on different themes and biomes for when you just start out because you don’t just have to make a dirt house for your first night in minecraft you can come up with other

Designs and just based on all of the resources that i have around me in those biomes i come up with a few designs let’s get straight into it so the first one i’m going to be covering is sort of a snowy mountainy biome but of course

You could put this in any sort of snow biome so the spruce wood is going to be our main source of resources so that’s exactly what we’re going to be using to make this but of course there is stone around so we can use cobble and i’m

Going to avoid using dirt in all of the designs that i’m going to show you so the first thing i’m going to do is integrate this into the mountain what this does is save a whole bunch of time it looks like a lovely little chalet kind of thing and by the way these

Houses are not supposed to look good they’re supposed to be a sort of average build for your first night so i’m just doing a very simple roof with an overhang adding some logs behind that overhang and then having the actual structure integrated into the mountain mountainside i feel like this actually

Fits really nicely into the biome and we are of course only using the materials from the biome itself cobbles easy to come by and to detail this very very simple house we just add a quick doorway and then just go inside and completely hollow it out where the actual living

Space is going to be add two’s very simple windows with a couple of spruce staircase add some windows and there is some sand nearby if you were wondering if that was a nearby material add some windows and a couple of bits of detailing and that’s kind of it it’s a

Very very simple build to do you can add some more staircases to give it that little extra bit of detail add some more staircases to make yourself a little walkway down to the bottom of your mountain and then that’s kind of it you’ve got a nice wooden hut integrated into the mountain

This took me seven minutes to make in-game that’s no time at all if you had the resources you could make that in your first or second day and have a lovely starting house to go on next up we have the savannah now this presented quite a unique challenge for

Me because it’s planes for one and acacia wood is not a block that i typically use but if you for example started in this area and you wanted to build a nice little house then there’s still the option to do something but to keep it in theme i

Decided to go along and make a sort of tribal hut and i did this very simply using mainly i think only acacia would i start off by starting a small circle segment and then work a entrance into the center of it i then go on to finish a complete circle as i work

Out what i’m going to do with this little hut this design is very situational and you might want to edit this as much as possible so you can see that i’ve finished this circle here very rudimentary and quite small but again this is a starter house that you should

Be able to finish in your first couple of days so just fill in the floor with acacia slab and then we’ve got a base to our house it is of course raised off the ground for defense purposes and you can create these little stumps with acacia

Fence and just give them a little bit of support there secondly you want to go on to the top and spread out your support beams throughout your circle in roughly the spacing that i’m doing although you could do whatever you want and raise them up to a standard height i’ve gone

For four blocks because i like to have a lot of height in my builds once you’ve done that that’s pretty much the body of the entire build done because this isn’t going to have walls being a tribal hut that i’m going for so now i’m going to do the roof really

Quick and it’s just a simple case of running round lots of half slabs and making it overhang over the top of your support beams once you’ve done that you can then work on trying to get it the best shape possible which i had considerable difficulty in editing it as much as

Possible is completely fine but obviously don’t waste too much time as this is only a starter house you can then go on the underside of your pillars and just add some staircase block just to make the transition a little bit smoother and just make it look like it’s

Not sitting on the top of the roof that is and it’s actually attached and being supported which i think is always a really nice trait once you’ve done that of course you can then go on the top and just fill in the rest in a nice circle

Raising it up half a slab every single time you go and make a new circle very simple stuff and this build is in fact very simple on the inside you might want to consider just tidying up the ceiling a little bit all i did here was add a

Load of staircases in a circle just mirroring what was on the top and it just makes it look really tidy underneath if you’ve got a few acacia wood to spare so that’s it for this house it’s very simple you can see that i’ve also added some half slabs on some of the fences

As a little precautionary measure if you find that you’re being attacked by mobs you can just add a few more blocks there to protect yourself from arrows it’s not a big deal or you could just add more fences as a protection layer let’s move

On to the next one which is going to be situated in the desert i had the biggest problem with this one because there’s no trees i had to work solely with the sandstone and sand blocks so this presented a completely new challenge and for all of you crazy people that are

Going to live in the desert i don’t know why you would stay there i would if i were you go and find some trees but that’s just me if you want to know how to make it continue on with this design so for this i’m mainly going to be

Aiming for a very sand castle look just editing a square sandstone block to be a bit more interesting and have a bit more shape and it’s actually very simple once you’ve collected enough of the sandstone so as you can see i’ve got a very simple base just a normal square

With plenty of space on the inside for a starter house i’ve also created something to detail the corners with a little bit of sand and some sandstone staircase which is going to be one of the primary blocks that we’re going to be detailing with so make sure that

You’ve got plenty of them as for detailing we can just do some very simple windows and in fact because of the cactus and the sand available one of the very few blocks we have at our disposal is stained green glass so we can use that as an option for our

Windows we could have completely sealed off the top and had that as our house but me being me likes to make it a little more extravagant and i’ve actually raised up the roof quite a substantial amount and going in a block every time i raise it up a few blocks to

Sort of create a really nice looking sandcastle appearance now this is kind of going a bit overboard for a starter house i may have got slightly carried away but to be honest with you if you have an abundance of sandstone at your disposal it really wouldn’t take long to

Build this up and make it look kind of nice although a starter house doesn’t really need this much detail i like to make it a little bit more interesting and i know that there is no door available for us but i did add a birchwood door just to try and complete

The build a little bit more we do also have stone available to us if you go underground so i added some stone buttons as a little bit of detailing but that sandstone hut should do enough for you for your first few nights in minecraft if you ended up living in the desert

Next up we have the canyon this is a very rare biome in minecraft and the chances of you spawning and wanting to live here are a little bit steep but nevertheless let’s make a small design for this this isn’t my best work but with the limited use of just stained

Clays i decided to go for a very sort of native looking hut so as you can see i’ve made a circle on the ground and i’ve raised it up quite high i then knock in a few windows and a door and add some sandstone slabs for support

Because there’s a lot of red sand in the canyon now i’m now adding a mushroom topped roof getting the shape of this is going to be extremely difficult i myself struggled to get exactly the right shape however this is just a starter house so just getting a basic shape it should be

Enough for you to collect the resources you need for a proper house i think this has a lot of charm to it and for detailing i just add a bunch of red sandstone to sort of occupy the spaces where it looks a little bit simplistic just adding

Those at the windows and a little bit round in the supports at the bottom just makes it look a little bit more interesting and then using white stained clay i add a floor and just sort of play around with some of the shapes on the

Roof if you’re not happy with it as i definitely wasn’t but once you’ve done that that’s kind of it it’s a very simple looking hut and you could have a farm around you and i think it would look pretty nice now on to the last segment which is the jungle now for this

Starter house although i had a good idea of what i wanted it to be my pc did not like the jungle at all so you might see some frame drops here and i do apologize i did the best i can anyway let’s start with some very simple techniques adding

A circle around the trunk of a tree about half way up you can choose pretty much any circle you want but roughly this size maybe even a tad smaller would be appropriate now underneath we’re going to want to create some sort of support system otherwise it’s just going

To look like it’s hanging off the middle of the tree which isn’t very good so all i’ve done is created these jungle wood striations that sort of attach to the bottom but work their way up to make it actually look like there is some support there it’s actually a very important

Detail that you put in if you want this build to look good then i go ahead and just make the floor and as we have done with several of our other builds in this video just create these supports at regular intervals around our circle this hut is going to be rather simple but

It’s going to be difficult to make because it is in the middle of the air you’re going to need some dirt scaffolding for this one there is actually oak log in the jungle so i did create just oak wood as a filler for those support beams on my hut i then go ahead

And use jungle wood for the rest of it first of all being my roof which again is just very similar to the one we made in the savannah where we make this curved top using the various blocks available to us and going up very steadily but on this one we have a

Staircase block as our outer block so now all we have to do is detail our rather modest looking hut in the jungle i like how it’s over into a river or the ocean i think that’s a really good detail to have now for the detailing it’s very very simple just add a couple

Of windows nothing fancy there’s no mobs gonna get you up there and then to finish off you can add some fences as detail and a ladder to make sure you can get up okay and that’s it a very simple build and a lovely starter house if you’re going to live in the jungle

So that’s it from me guys i hope you really enjoyed this very different video i don’t normally do overly simplistic builds that you can make very short amount of time i usually go for good builds you know but this is ideally for those of you that can’t stand living in

A dirt hut because your builder senses won’t let you this is for the people that really just have to make something that’s acceptable i know the designs that i did are not great don’t go in the comments bashing my abilities this was specifically designed to be quick simple

But not look like a dirt hut anyway that’s enough for me thank you very very much for watching if you’re at the end of the video and you’re hearing my voice thank you very much for watching all the way to the end it does make a huge

Amount of difference if you have any suggestions for future videos i am all ears i really do listen to my subs as much as possible even to the point where i made a modern house so thank you very much for watching guys goodbye
