Wood ×100 · Stone ×100

¥8,000 · 2 days

A house renovation that adds space and a kitchen-equipped room.

大きな家

Practical Planning

What Should I Build First?

A practical order for most players, not an official universal ranking.

  1. Early utility: Anvil, Well and basic animal housing.
  2. Production growth: animal building upgrades, Silo and Fish Pond.
  3. Mid or late progression: Large Fish Pond and Greenhouse.
  4. Space and aesthetics: larger house, interior walls and floor.

Livestock, fishing, farming and tool-focused players will prioritize these differently.

Relocation and Boundaries

What This Page Does Not Count

The building database stays intentionally narrow.

Processing machines such as Dryer, Smoker, Mill and Brewing Barrel belong to Processing or Shrine Skills. Grand Piano, Foot Bath, Irori, Tractor, Christmas Tree and Mahjong Table are furniture rewards. The Hot Spring is a Quarry progression location, not a normal Kisuke construction order.

FAQ

Building Questions

How do I build buildings?

Use Kisuke's construction service at 樹木建設. Construction orders are accepted on weekdays from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM once the service is available through story progression.

Can I build more than one building at once?

No. A second construction or renovation project cannot be started until the current one is finished.

How do I unlock the Greenhouse?

Complete the High-Quality Goods section of the Village Chief Delivery Catalog. The Greenhouse is a later progression unlock and typically becomes practical from Year 2 onward.

What does the Greenhouse do?

The Greenhouse allows crops to grow regardless of the outside season and supports fruit trees and paddy fields. It also unlocks access to Greenhouse-specific crops such as Mango, Cacao and Banana.

How many Glass Rods does the Greenhouse need?

Current construction data requires 150 Glass Rods. At five Glass Fragments per Glass Rod, that is 750 Glass Fragments before accounting for any other Greenhouse materials.

How do I get a Large Fish Pond?

Complete the Fish section of the Village Chief Delivery Catalog to unlock the Large Fish Pond upgrade.

How many fish fit in a Fish Pond?

A normal Fish Pond holds up to 10 fish. The Large Fish Pond increases capacity to 30.

How many animals fit in the Livestock Barn?

The Small Livestock Barn holds four animals, while the upgraded Livestock Barn holds eight.

Should I upgrade my house first?

House upgrades add space and features such as cooking, but animal housing and production buildings usually provide a stronger immediate efficiency boost. The best priority depends on your playstyle.

What is the Silo for?

The Silo raises fodder storage capacity to 999.

Can buildings be moved?

Several structures have documented relocation or removal service handling, including the Anvil, animal buildings, Well and Doghouse. Not every building should be assumed movable unless it appears in the construction service's relocation list.
