LEGO® House

Description

Small enough to finish in one sitting

At 58 pieces this is about as small as a set gets. You can put it together in a few minutes, which is exactly the point: no free evening, no big table, just a quick build that still ends up as a proper little building. With no minifigures in the box, the focus is entirely on the house itself, its walls, its roof and the way the colours sit against each other on such a compact model. Children and beginners get a quick sense of achievement this way, without having to work through a thick instruction booklet.

What the colours tell you

The main colours are tan, black, reddish brown and red, a warm and earthy palette that suits a cottage well. The 58 pieces come in only 15 different part types, so many elements repeat. That makes the build easy to follow and the parts list short to read. If you like checking the details, every shape and colour is listed individually further down this page, ready to compare against your own collection. Sorting stays simple too, because the colours are clearly distinct and are easy to separate out on the table before you start building.

A collector's item from 2009

The set dates from 2009 and belongs to the monthly mini models offered through LEGO® Brand Stores. Small promotional sets like this were not handed out through ordinary retail, so collectors tend to be the ones looking for them today. If you are keeping a complete record of your sets, the number MMMB006-1 is the reliable way to identify it and tick it off your list. If you only look for sets from particular years, the 2009 release date quickly leads you to the neighbouring models in your collection.

Spare bricks for bigger ideas

Tiny sets make useful parts donors. Tan, reddish brown and red are handy for walls, roofs and doors on your own houses. Check the parts list on this page, then use the “What can I build?” tool to see which other models your bricks could make. A single small house can easily turn into the first building on a whole street. If you like, you can place several of these buildings side by side and turn them into a small neighbourhood with roofs, fences and gardens.
