I am looking for a small home. I am single, I suck at decorating and I don't like doing it. I wanted something beautiful and magical, with lights. Now I know that is very subjective but just something... romantic. I was thinking of something with wood and lights.

I've been looking through housing for probably close to an hour now and not even finding something remotely close to what I want. I feel like it is all ocean side housing or cottages or something modern.

Anyway, I hope you can help!

There's a cute tree house on a block not far behind my store in Barnstable. It's got cute fairy lights strung up around it, and I've always thought it looks quite magical. It might be Dust Bunny's work, but not sure. If you could be interested in a tree house I'll check out the creator next time I'm online.

Actually, might be worth checking out Dust Bunny if you haven't yet - their buildings often give me a magical woodland feel.

That is very kind of you. I was hoping for more of a home home, not so much a treehouse. I know I am not being overly helpful here, so I apologize.

You can buy string lights and add them.

The problem would still be in finding the romantic home. I have this specific image in my head of what I want. Just something natural with lights, romantic, and small haha.

I have a hobbit house I can toss at you, for gratis. You'll have to add things like lights, security and so on, it's (mostly) unscripted except for basic door scripts. It needs a hill.

The problem is understanding what you want, because Romantic is not really a house style. There is cottage, cabin, ranch, Victorian, craftsman, villa, beach, modern, castle, Tudor, medieval, hut etc.

Something more natural. The problem is I cannot fit it in a specific category and what I envision is such a limited view it is hard to say.

That's why Google image search exists. Try FANTASY HOUSE for search terms, and when you find a few you like, you can play the "some of this, some of that" game.

I checked Dust Bunny, I did not see anything I liked.
I found the Hannah cottage at Trompe, but it is too small for even just a bed. I was going to buy it but I asked someone and they said it would likely not be able to fit just a bed.

I miss the Julia Hathor type of houses, yes they were primmy as hell, but the level of detail and that one-click immersion was amazing.

See, when you say you have ruled out cottages, no one would have suggested the Hannah cottage, and it just what you have been looking for.

Here's another great little cottage with lights & you can even buy it fully furnished. It's set up at DRD in world if you want to go see it. :)

In fact I love this little house so much that I'm using it as my home right now tho I've put in my own furnishings. Great little house! Oh and it has a built in bed. You can buy the house as PG or Adult.

I have quite a few houses from BA ( barnesworth Anubis) worth checking they usually have a house at Collaboro88.
I am actually living in the Paris Skybox ATM and love it it has windows/a door and skylights!
Funky Junk has some very unusual houses as well.
Scarlet Creations you could also take a look at.
How many prims would you like it to be this can vary greatly even in small structures.
