No Gamepass Starter House — ~13k Blockbucks

What You Get for ~13,000 Blockbucks

This starter house design delivers everything a new player needs: a bedroom with bed, a bathroom with toilet and shower, a kitchen with fridge and stove, a living area, front door, and basic exterior styling. The footprint fits standard starter empty plots and uses single-floor construction only — no Multiple Floors gamepass required.

The ~13k figure assumes you use budget-friendly wall, floor, and roof materials from the cheaper catalog tiers. Custom textures and premium furniture push the total higher. Follow the video guide for visual placement order; use this page as your checklist and FAQ reference.

Floor Plan Overview

The design uses a compact rectangle divided into four zones: living and kitchen combined at the front, bathroom along the side hallway, and bedroom at the back for privacy. A single front door opens into the living space. Windows on the front and side walls provide daylight without expensive glass variants.

Total interior footprint is roughly six by eight grid tiles — small enough for starter plots, large enough for essential mood items. Adjust proportions if your plot boundary requires setbacks; keep exterior walls inside your property line with room for a path.

Build Order for Efficiency

Step one: lay the full foundation/floor. Step two: exterior walls with door and window cutouts. Step three: interior dividing walls. Step four: roof. Step five: place functional items — bed, shower, toilet, sink, fridge, stove. Step six: add seating, lighting, and exterior path or fence.

Buying appliances before decorating prevents running out of Blockbucks with an unfinished bathroom. Always reserve roughly ten percent of budget for unexpected price differences if catalog sales or updates shift costs.

• Foundation and floors first — complete the grid rectangle.
• Exterior shell with one front door and two or three windows.
• Interior walls separating bed, bath, and living/kitchen.
• Simple gabled or hip roof — cheapest compatible pieces.
• Required mood items before cosmetic decor.
• Front path and mailbox for immersion and bills access.

Cost-Saving Substitutions

Swap premium roof textures for default shingles. Use basic flooring in wet rooms and slightly nicer texture in living areas only. Skip outdoor furniture until your job income stabilizes. One floor lamp beats three until you earn more from work experience boosted shifts.

After You Move In

Immediately set up a job routine to replenish Blockbucks after construction depleted your savings. Pizza Delivery pairs well with this phase — fast pay, good experience growth. Expand with a backyard, garage, or room addition later when you can afford Multiple Floors or a plot upgrade.
