The best Minecraft house blueprints you can get right now
How fancy do you want your Minecraft house to be?
Minecraft is one of the most popular games on the planet, which is impressive for a game originally released back in 2009.
It's a game that's been built on in the years since its release, with numerous new gameplay elements and graphical updates arriving with every patch.
Whether you're new to the blocky world or you've been there for over a decade, there's a chance you haven't built a house yet.
It isn't necessary to have a house, of course. But you do feel like a boss. Especially if you've built an awe-inspiring palace that's the envy of all your friends.
You don't need to freestyle build a house, either. There are plenty of blueprints available on the internet you can use if you don't know where to start.

Castle with blue towers
Blocks needed: 10465
While not quite as epic in scope as the last, this is still a great castle to have and even more so if you like your homes to have lots of blue as a central colour.

Steampunk Fantasy Tower House 2
Blocks needed: 9695
This is one of the tallest towers going - so tall in fact that we could not fit the entire thing into one picture - it is the tower equivalent of Lady Dimitrescu!

Huge Modern Mansion

Go big or go home, right? Well this one is certainly big and the amount of blocks needed is quite the number - it will be worth it though when you have completed it.
This is an epic design and an awesome looking mansion and while constructing it may take you a while, we suspect that you will be glad you did when you see the final product.

Detailed Nordic House

Let's go a lot smaller for this next one, and this Nordic-themed home is a great one to get if you like the theme or you want to have a bit of an Assassin's Creed Valhalla vibe going on.
The number of blocks needed is small in comparison to many others and this will be one that a novice could have a crack at without running into too many problems as they build it.

Modern Duplex House 1
Blocks needed: 3954
There is a lot of older style buildings out there and many on this list, so let's have a look at one that is a bit more modern - not everyone is a lover of history.
This modern duplex house is a stylish one and is a very different look from a lot of the others that you will see. We'd happily live in this ourselves if it were built in the real world!
