Villager house
A villager house is a building. You might able to enter their houses before Animal Crossing: Wild World, however, In Animal Crossing: City Folk, you might able to enter villagers houses in December 24th only if you deliver presents. Houses owned by villagers are always 6x6 in size, and, in games past Animal Crossing (GCN), usually cannot be entered by the player unless the villager is inside, with a few exceptions, such as Toy Day in Animal Crossing: City Folk (where Jingle can be inside an empty villager's home).
Exteriors
In Animal Crossing (GCN)
In Animal Crossing (GCN), there are five house exterior models with five colors each. Villagers will always have the same house exterior, and each exterior is shared between several villagers. All islanders share the same house exterior.

In Animal Crossing: Wild World
In Animal Crossing: Wild World, there are twenty house exterior models with twenty-five colors each. Villagers will always have the same house exterior model, and each exterior model is shared between several villagers. However, the color will vary, which affects the overall texturing of the house, including the color of the door, the color and shape of the windows, and the coloring of the roof. The color associated with each house exterior model is determined when the town is created.
The twenty house exterior models can be categorized into five separate families of four children (A, B, C, and D). The children in each family look nearly identical but have small differences, such as the addition of a chimney, or the addition of a window on the roof. When a town is created, the game randomly associates group A, B, C, and D each with its own unique color from the twenty-five potential colors. For one random example, group A could be assigned color #2, group B could be assigned color #18, group C could be assigned color #12, and group D could be assigned color #23. Therefore, a town will only ever have four different color variants for houses.

In Animal Crossing: City Folk
In Animal Crossing: City Folk, there are 9 different texture styles for houses. 3 styles are generic and can occur in any region of the game, while the other 6 styles are regional variants. Note that the following given texture style names are unofficial:
- International: stone, rustic, ranch
- Japan/Korea only: zen, farmhouse
- North America only: pink, ornate
- Europe only: brick, log
Each town will only ever showcase 1 specific combo of 2 different styles:
- Stone and rustic
- Rustic and ranch
- JP/KO: stone and farmhouse, NA: stone and ornate, EU: stone and log
- JP/KO: ranch and zen, NA: ranch and pink, EU: ranch and brick
- JP/KO: zen and farmhouse, NA: pink and ornate, EU: brick and log
There are 5 house exterior models, and each house model has 27 variations (9 different texture styles with 3 different colors each). For a specific region, there are a total of 75 possible house exterior combinations, but between all regions, there exist a total of 135 house exteriors. Villagers are associated with 9 specific house exteriors, 1 from each house style, and these pools of exteriors are shared between several villagers. Villagers exist among 15 distinct potential pools of house exteriors.

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf
In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, each villager has a unique house exterior, although many of these look quite similar. Each house has a chimney that releases uniquely-shaped smoke plumes, which can be either oval, butterfly, fish, flower, or star-shaped. Oval-shaped is the most predominant type.
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, each villager has a unique house exterior, although many of these look quite similar. After completing the 30th house and attending DJ KK's concert for the first time in the Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Happy Home Paradise DLC, the player can change a villager's exterior furnishings, including their roof, exterior, door, and any door decorations.
In Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer
In Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer, the player may customize the exterior of each villager's home and its surrounding area. Like in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, each house has a chimney that releases uniquely-shaped smoke plumes. The shape is identical to their Animal Crossing: New Leaf counterparts, except for Maddie.
Interiors
Villager houses are always 6x6 in size and, with the exception of the two starting villagers' tents upgrading to houses in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, never expand, unlike the player's home. Each villager starts with different furniture, but this changes over time, such as when the player mails them new items or when the villager (or a player) buys items at the Flea Market. For Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk, wallpaper and flooring may change if the player sends a letter to a villager with one of these attached as a gift. In Animal Crossing: New Leaf and Animal Crossing: New Horizons, they will always retain their wallpaper and flooring, so gifting them new wallpaper and flooring will have no effect.
In Animal Crossing (GCN) and Dōbutsu no Mori e+
In Animal Crossing (GCN), villager houses feature a fixed furniture layout that cannot be changed. In Dōbutsu no Mori e+, villagers who are new to the game feature identical furniture layouts to specific existing villagers, albeit with different wallpaper, flooring, and songs. Unlike in later games, villager houses can be entered by the player if the villager is not home.
In Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk
Furniture layouts in villager homes are mostly the same between Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk, though there are some exceptions.
- A piece of furniture may be rotated between Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk:
- An item may be substituted between Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk:
- Camofrog, Drake, Kid Cat, and Pippy's Nintendo bench was replaced with a blue bench.
- Chow and Lucky's squat dingloid was replaced with a croakoid.
- Dizzy, Hopper, Peewee, Poncho, and Rodeo's mega timpanoid was replaced with a mini drilloid.
- Elvis's thrones were replaced with regal chairs.
- Robin's blue marlin was replaced with a salmon.
- Rodeo's tall timpanoid was replaced with a harmonoid.
- Snake's stone wall was replaced with a lunar horizon.
- A piece of furniture may swap positions with another piece of furniture between Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk:
- Bunnie's baby bear and lovely lamp swapped positions.
- Camofrog's tape deck and office locker swapped positions.
- Genji's mini-dharma and evening cicada swapped positions.
- Jitters's lawn mower and mega fizzoid swapped positions with the oil drums.
- Moe's dice stereo and kiddie dresser swapped positions.
- Monique's iris table and lovely vanity swapped positions.
- A piece of furniture may be removed between Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk:
- Bluebear, Cube, Kabuki, and Kody's red snapper was removed.
- The layouts are identical between Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk, but the arrangement is mirrored from left-to-right:
- If a villager has the "dig up fossils" hobby, the furniture in their house will have an altered arrangement with empty space in one of the four corners to accommodate a large fossil. The following villagers have a starting hobby of "dig up fossils" in Animal Crossing: Wild World, which is not guaranteed to be their starting hobby in Animal Crossing: City Folk:
Additionally, villagers may occasionally change the location of furniture in their house and randomly throw away furniture each day after moving in.
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the first five villagers' houses have default interiors with basic furniture, flooring, and wallpaper, tailored to their base personalities (as there will always be one each of big sister, jock, normal, peppy, and lazy)—whereas all subsequent villagers have furnishing customized to their individual characters as in past games. Nonetheless, there is still some variation in the exact items each villager starts with, based in part on character and the island's native fruit. The house exteriors are consistent with what those same characters would have gotten if they moved in later. Prior to the release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Happy Home Paradise, these villagers were not able to "upgrade" to their default furnishings while on the same island, though if they are adopted by another island, they will reset to their standard furnishings and retain them if they then move back.
With the release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Happy Home Paradise, after completing the 30th house on the archipelago and attending DJ KK's first concert on the main archipelago island, the houses of the villagers on the player's island can be customized via Tom Nook, including the ability to reset to that villager's default furnishings, even for those in the first five. The player can also utilize lighting, soundscapes, and polishing when remodeling a house, though room-size adjustments will be unavailable for the remodeling of a villager's house. The player can also ask Isabelle to reset the villager's interior to their default furnishings, though this requires the ability for villager house customization on the player's island.

Trivia
- Unique default music exists for the villager starter houses during the island development quest in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, but they are ultimately unused since the music that plays is linked with the villager, irrespective of the starter house's default music value. These default songs are as follows:
- Big sister: "Forest Life"
- Jock: "K.K. Country"
- Lazy (apple, orange, peach, pear): "To the Edge"
- Lazy (cherry): "K.K. Island"
- Normal: "K.K. Soul"
- Peppy: "Bubblegum K.K."
