Such a good deal for a starter dollhouse. This will be my first attempt. My kit arrived quickly and in perfect condition. A little outdated from 1985, but I plan on turning it into a stone cottage with the help of joint compound, adding a fireplace and chimney, and filling it with handmade medieval furniture. This small kit does not come with shingles, so I plan on cutting my own from strips of book binding chip board and painting to look like slate. There are no downstairs side windows, so if you want one you will have to modify. All in all, I really like this cute little kit and hope I can create a masterpiece. I got mine for $30.00 and do not think I would be willing to pay more than that
