The Little Cottage 4x6 Wood Cape Cod Playhouse has an absolutely charming look both you and your child will love. The perfect inspiration for creative play, this house is built from LP Smart Side, which is a wood building material known for its durability, resistance to weather, and its low environmental impact. The pieces are treated with SmartGuard finishing, which uses zinc borates to resist rot and mold while minimizing chemical use and pollutant output. Because LP Smart Side is so strong and safe, the playhouse pieces are covered by a 50-year limited warranty from LP.
This Cape-Cod style house arrives in an assembly kit, along with almost everything you need to build it quickly and easily. Make a family project out of assembly - your child will love choosing paint colors and watching the house come to life. The kit includes:
All provided parts are pre-cut and in ready-to-assemble condition, and the trim and siding is primed and ready for paint. You supply paint, Dripedge (roof edging), and shingles.
This playhouse is available in a variety of configurations. The photo shown above includes all available components (floor kit, chimney, and deck with rail).

Our DIY playhouse kits are designed for easy assembly. Unless otherwise noted, they should require an average of two adults working four to eight hours to complete. Panelized walls, pre-cut pieces, and alphabetized labels help make the process simple, as does the downloadable full-color instruction manual (link provided with your purchase).
When assembling your playhouse, please make sure to choose a level area for installation. We recommend an area that is covered in crushed stone, patio block, or concrete, in order to form a base for the playhouse. However, because the playhouse bases are made from treated lumber, they can be placed directly on the ground. If you do decide to prepare a base for your playhouse, make sure it measures 1 foot wider than the house itself on all sides.
If you are interested in moving your playhouse to another location in the future, you should purchase and install 4 x 4 runners before completing assembly. Once runners are in place, the playhouse can be moved by your local tow truck company with the use of a flatbed and a winch. If you are simply moving the playhouse across the yard, you can do so with heavy wall PVC piping. Call Little Cottage Co. at 330-893-4212 for more information and assistance.

Comments about Little Cottage 4 x 6 Cape Cod Wood Playhouse:
The house was wonderful once completed, but it took a lot longer to build than I would have thought. The screws supplied with the kit were cheap and difficult to screw into the wood. The screw heads were square as opposed to a phillips. We thus ended up using our own screws. It also was missing some pieces on the front of the house which we had to go out and purchase. Our grandchildren loved the house however, once it was completed. Plan on spend a good day and a half to build it.
