Idea Book 1 : Tiny house with terrasse and tree

This image, sourced from page 2 of the LEGO Idea Book 1 (also referenced as set 238-0), displays a variety of house designs under the theme “Something about houses.” The construction highlighted within the green circle features a compact red-roofed (with slopes) house with white walls, accented by a small chimney and a front yard with a tree. On this web page, we provide step-by-step instructions to help you build this charming red-roofed house, allowing you to recreate this classic LEGO design from the 1950s. Note that the rendering bellow is not using the right tree reference, but I provide the good one in the inventory section.

All the constructions of this picture can be found on this page.
