I was very tempted to go get it because it's only an hour from me. I snooze I lose. I really am running out of room though so it's ok Anyhoo...these two are from the same seller and I like them both...can't go get them because I'm in South Florida but they're unique, and I would make room for them if they were local LOL Adobe style: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dollhouse-Adobe-style-handmade-local-pick-up-only/283524560430?hash=item420361762e:g:zJ8AAOSwl0pdDi6h House with Garage: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Doll-House-handmade-in-the-1950s-excellent-condition-pick-up-only/283498097866?hash=item4201cdacca:g:DikAAOSwqMBc6~~r I posted about that awful Nantucket house. Didn't know it had sold. It showed up as "Other items you might be interested in!" just a few days ago. If it had the original windows and doors from Lawbre, I might have bought it myself! Don't be disappointed that it's gone. With the awful components they put on that house, I wouldn't have bought it if the seller lived next door to me. You're better off without it. I've seen both that adobe and the Cape Cod with the garage. Shame the adobe isn't a full house, I love it. That Cape Cod looks my first real dollhouse. It was built from the Doll Domiciles plans but had two windows on both sides of the front door, like the one you posted, and five very tall narrow dormers on the roof. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Doll-Domiciles-Colonial-Williamsburg-Dollhouse-Plans-Vintage-1-12-1-Scale/352730215558 Gosh, I loved that house. I gave it to a cousin when I went to college. She later let her 2-year old daughter use it as a playhouse. Needless to say, it was completely destroyed. It ended up in a landfill somewhere years ago. *cries* 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks big but doesn't seem all too special. I like the floor plan though, and the wrap around porch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it might be a Skilcraft kit but then I thought didn't McCall's have a pattern similar to this? I get all these houses so confused with one another!

My Miniature Madness Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 It also says there are two available, and in the Item Specifics section next to Features: is says kit. Showing only finished photos of the house and not the kit is what I would consider deceptive and should probably be reported to eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like those architectural models high school and trade school students build to learn about frame building construction. My older brother made one in a high school woodworking class that looked very much like that but without the 2-story section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jodi’s building one of their shops at the moment and some of that framing looks very similar to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
