The plot is s78. It's pretty much done but I still have 5-6 days to go so please have a look and tell me how I can improve :)

 

EDIT: Bunch of changes done.

 

EDIT 2: I decided the house is done now. I just need a bit of confirmation is it really is ready to submit 'cause I still got plenty of time. But if you have another suggestion that might help me please post it. In the other hand, if you think it's ready to submit tell me because that's gonna give me confidence to do it.

Let's start off with the exterior.  First off, good shape! It's nice to see that you didn't make it square. :)  Your use of materials is good, but I noticed your pattern of switching between sandstone and sand for each floor.  If I were you, I would just keep one material for the outside consistent (unless you use another material for a pattern in the wall).  Second, I like your roof, but I would extend it out another block or so, as it looks a bit strange if it is level with the wall.  I like the wood finish you have put in; it looks nice.  You did alright in the plant-life as well, but the hedge seems a bit regularly shaped, but I mean, that might be what you want.  That's not such a big deal.

 

Now for the interior.  I like it a lot.  You were very artistic with it, especially with the archways, and the stairway.  Your lighting aspect is good, but try to avoid torches, as they are not canon.  In the rooms which have different floor materials, try to use a material which hasn't been used yet for the outside or inside.  Don't give up on the top floor!!!  I understand that it is supposed to be an attic, but you can still make that floor more interesting! :) Try a bit less chests (there are a lot) and fill the ones that you keep, with unique, and appropriate items in them, as those things are taken into account.

 

All in all, good house! With a bit more work, I am confident that it will pass.  Good luck!

Let's see what i can remember off the top of my head since I can't access minecraft at the moment:

 

The shape is good and your materials are good. The exterior is quite pretty and quaint. They might have a problem with the amount of wood block on the outside but I don't think that will happen. Your kitchen is good and your dining room is good too. The only problem I really saw was the attic. You may want to consider adding a small window up there and maybe not having the room so cramped. Maybe just open it up for a storage space with plenty of chests. Either that or make the room a little more open and less cluttered.

 

That's all i can remember after a quick skim. However, I want to take a closer look at some of the smaller details before i can give an accurate report.
