Dolls House Kit Review:-  The Regent Manor House By One Twelfth Homes

This dolls house kit makes a one twelfth scale MDF six room Regency Manor House. The house is front opening with two main doors and the hinged roof opens at the front. The extra width means that the rooms are a little larger than our other houses.

There is an optional basement extension with French doors that open out onto a fenced patio at the front. This kit includes all doors, window frames, glazing, stairs, banisters, balustrades, chimneys and pots. Screws, hinges, door magnets and glue are also supplied. The kit maker will only need to supply their own sandpaper, bradawl, set square and Philips screwdriver.

The doors, windows and stairs are all made of reclaimed hardwood wherever possible although some pine is also used. Most kit components are hand made and hand finished. The dolls house shell is made in a jig from MDF to ensure easy assemblt

House Height 28" - Basement Height 8.25"

House Width 28.5" - Basement Width 27.5"

House Depth 14" - Basement Depth 33"

This kit offers excellent value for money. As nearly everything needed for this dolls house project is included, it suits both the new and more experienced kit maker. The addition of the basement extension helps to create a truly impressive house. The instructions accompanying this kit are very comprehensive and all the carcase parts are jig made and have ready cut slots. We recommend checking and identifying each component before constructing the house. Leave glued pieces to dry overnight and read the instructions carefully before gluing anything together!

The manufacturers calculate approximately 7 hours for the build time for this dolls house kit.
