In Minecraft, people typically choose a biome that is lush, full of trees, and maybe near some water. But what if we changed that up a bit? Today, our team chose the best sandstone desert Minecraft houses to show our appreciation to the desert, which never gets the love it deserves.

Village Styled Desert Home
TL;DR
- nice interior and exterior design
- practical

Sv Gravity’s sandstone desert house is a perfect starter home for when you spawn in a desert biome. The build can very easily fit into a village and can easily be created by adjusting a desert village tower. The interior and exterior design are very well done. The building is very practical and the tutorial is very easy to follow. The materials are very easy to gather as well depending on spawn. If spruce doesn’t work, you can replace them with jungle, acacia, or oak wood. Birch is not recommended, as it wouldn’t contrast as well with the sand.
