Snowberry Cottage Playhouse with Doorbell & Dog Door — White

The doorbell is the part they will show you first. This is a white fir playhouse with a bell at the front door, a stove and tap set for pretend cooking, a blackboard on the wall, a roomy bench to sit on, and a dog door with a soft fabric flap at the base so the family dog has an entrance of its own. It stands 60.4 inches tall on a 53.5 by 46.1 inch footprint, and the 41.3 by 39 inch interior gives two children room to cook, draw and take turns answering the door.

Why families love it

• A working doorbell at the front turns every visit into an occasion: someone rings, someone answers, and the game starts over from the beginning.
• The stove and tap set makes one corner a kitchen, with accessories like a pot, a shovel and a spoon for pretend cooking.
• A blackboard on the wall takes shop signs, menus and chalk drawings, then wipes clean for the next idea.
• The dog door and its soft fabric flap let the family dog come and go, so the smallest member of the household is part of the play rather than watching from the lawn.
• A roomy bench with a 132 lb weight capacity gives them somewhere to sit down, for a snack, a story or a rest between jobs.
• Robust fir wood finished in a smooth water-based paint, with a strong frame built to withstand outdoor use.

Designed for

Recommended for children 2 years and up. The playhouse measures 53.5″ long by 46.1″ wide and 60.4″ tall, with the eaves at 41.3″ and 58.7″ of headroom inside, so a toddler and an older sibling can both stand up in it. The door opens 15.7″ wide by 36.7″ tall, and the side window measures 16.7″ by 20.9″, which together with the large windowsill keeps light and air moving through and lets you watch from the patio without standing over anyone. Plan on a level patch of lawn, deck or patio a little wider than the footprint, with clearance for the door to swing. If you are still comparing footprints, our playhouse buying guide sets every model side by side, and the rest of our wooden playhouses sit alongside it.

Assembly & care

Assembly is required and the manual is packed in the carton. Wipe the painted panels and the blackboard with a damp cloth and let them dry. The maker advises avoiding prolonged exposure to heavy rain or strong sunlight, so a sheltered corner of the yard will keep the white finish looking new for longer. Our assembly and care guide covers the seasonal routine.

Measurements are supplier-provided. Allow a little extra room around the footprint for walking space.
