This 7 1/2 8-ft. playhouse has many of the architectural details you'll find on a
real house, making it a truly special place for playand a fun project to build.
With two homemade windows and a door-window, the 5 8-ft. interior of the
main house is a bright but private space. Outside, a 2 1/2-ft.-deep covered porch
provides additional shelter for playing, lounging, or welcoming guests. The entire
building is supported by a single floor frame attached to a wooden skidfoundation, which helps make the playhouse easy to move.
As shown, the playhouse is a complete building, ready for play, but its simple
design leaves plenty of room for you and your children to do some of your own
decorating. For starters, the plan suggests the option of finishing the house
interior with 1/4" prefinished plywood paneling. You can also finish the ceiling
