Minecraft – Simple Starter Treehouse Tutorial (How to Build)

Hello everybody my name is marlowe and today i’m going to show you how to build a small survival treehouse in minecraft now there are bigger and more complex treehouse designs out there but this one is simple enough that you could in theory build this as a bit of a unique

Starter house if you would like to it’s got everything you need to get yourself started a bed some storage a couple of furnaces and a few other crafting supplies before we get started with the build let’s take a look at all of the materials you will need to make this treehouse So once you’ve picked out a location to build your tree house in the first thing we’re gonna do is pillar up with eleven oak logs so one two three four five six seven eight nine ten and eleven then we’re gonna hop back down and we’re gonna skip the first block and place

Down one two three and four ladders now we’re just gonna bulk out the stump of the tree now so in front of the ladders we’re gonna place a spruce stair then to the right of it we’re gonna place a single oak log then two next to that one then we’re

Gonna skip this corner block here and place two more behind the logs and then we’re gonna have one and two here so we should have one two two one one then we’re gonna grab some spruce trap doors and on top of this log as well as

This one round here so to the two sides we’re gonna place down two trap doors and on the other three we’re gonna have some spruce slabs as well as one here on the floor so as you can see that just bulks out the bottom a little bit the

Next step is to grab some spruce stairs and in line with the third ladder up so one two three on this third one on all three of the sides we’re gonna have three upside down spruce stairs and then we’re gonna have two slabs coming off

From all of those stairs as well as two at the front so if you just place them on the top part of that ladder just like that then from this stair in all of the corners we’re gonna go one two three and four just like that so we can do the same on

This spot round here and exactly the same on this just starting on the stair one two three and four it’s a little bit different because we obviously have that hole for the ladder but as you can see it makes this shape right here and all

We need to do next to the single slab justing outwards next to it we’re just gonna have four spruce trap doors on all four of the sides just like that we’re now gonna start work on the leaf canopy above and the beauty of this treehouse is there’s actually a pattern as to how

You place down the leaves so i’m gonna show you where you need to place down every single block i’m not just gonna go and tell you to add some bushiness and get it to look like a tree no this is a tutorial i’ll show you every single block so the first thing

We’re actually gonna do is grab some of our logs and we’re gonna go up by one two three four and five and on that fifth block we’re going to add three horizontal logs coming out in all four directions just like that we can also go

Ahead and stick a leaf block in front of all of those then underneath here we’re gonna add two leaves underneath the first two logs and leave the third one open and we’re also gonna add a leaf block in all four of the corners just like that now we’re

Just gonna come to one of the corners here and we’re gonna place down a leaf in the corner and then three coming off either side just like that and then we’re gonna have one more here and two more so you should have one two three and four leaves in a diagonal line like

This and it will look like this from underneath and you can copy that exact same thing for the other three corners so when you’re all done with that you should have something that looks a little bit like this now for the next level up we’re actually gonna leave some

Air spaces we don’t want our tree to be completely solid with leaves it’s good to be able to see through it a little bit so we’re going to purposefully miss out some blocks here on this level so we’re going to start by placing four leaf blocks in all of the corner spots

Like that then we’re also going to place one on top of all of the middle logs so we should have this circle shape around the middle log we can then go ahead and place one on all four sides on that outer leaf block just like that and then what we need to

Do is place another one on the corners right here so coming off from that center block like this on all four of those so i just take kind of an overview and you can see which leaves you need to place down all that we have left to do on all four

Of the sides from this middle leaf block we’re just gonna have two next to it like that to create this w shape so we can do that on the other ones too that’s just four leaf blocks on all of the corners making sure we have that w shape

So this is what the second layer or the third layer technically looks like the next two layers are much easier to follow all we’re gonna do is place one two three leaf blocks coming off from the center log on all four directions just like that and then for the corners

We’re just gonna go one two and three very simply for all four of those spaces so that is the second last layer done all we need to do for the top layer super simple just add a little plush shape at the top and there we go our

Leaf canopy is done now this looks pretty good the way it is but it can look a lot better by simply installing a bushy leaf texture pack the one i’m currently using is from vanilla tweaks there are others out there but this is my personal favorite it just makes all

Leaves and trees in minecraft look a whole lot better i would highly recommend it i’m gonna leave a link to vanilla tweaks where you can get that texture pack as well as plenty others down in the description below so that is the tree parts done now we can start

Work on the house part so the first thing we’re gonna do on top of this slab on all four sides is just place down a brick wall and on top of that brick wall we’re gonna place down a spruce fence three of them in fact and you should

Find it lines up with the oak log that is just above it like that with all of those down kind of holding up the tree and connecting the platform here to it next to the brick walls and you may want to crouch whilst you do this but we’re going to have two

Spruce fence gates connected to both of those on all of the sides just like that then in the corner blocks here we’re going to crouch and place down some spruce fences to complete our railing going all the way around so you’re not going to accidentally fall out of your

Tree house we have that set up and underneath those fences we’re just gonna place a chain and a lantern now four might be a little bit overkill but i’m just trying to keep with the symmetry here so we have four of those in all of the corners if you don’t want four you

Could always maybe knock out two and just have two place down or no lanterns at all it’s kind of up to you but i like the four lanterns i think it keeps with the symmetrical style of the treehouse so all that’s left to do now is place in the helpful survival items

Such as a bed for example so we’re gonna climb up the ladder here and actually face into the ladder and turn to the left and place our bed down on those two blocks we’re gonna have a crafting table just beside it with a flower pot on top

Then we can turn around to this side where we’re gonna have a furnace in the corner and then a stone cutter next to it over in this corner here just past the bed and crafting table we’re gonna have a blast furnace and a smoker two very helpful things to have in the early

Game and then over here in the final corner we’re gonna have a barrel with two chests either side of it and then this part is optional but i think it’s a nice little touch just place an item on the top of the barrel with whatever you’re storing inside maybe it can be

Your early game food source so there we go everybody that is how you easily build a small starter survival tree house in minecraft i really hope you enjoyed watching thank you ever so much for doing that and i will see you in the next video bye for now
