This generic N gauge terraced house/cottage is based on the thousands and thousands to be found in most Midland and Northern cities. Designed to sit up against each other, each individual N scale house can be set at the same floor level, or slightly raised or lowered to suit any incline of hill you wish to portray.

The kit is supplied with all the necessary doors and windows, roof panels, downspouts, an outhouse with door and roof, and yard walls with a rear gate and coping stones to build one cottage/terraced house. Each yard can be made without one side wall, allowing the next house to be placed alongside, without a double thickness wall between the yards. A final wall section is also included to finish off the yard at the end of the row.

The kit is straightforward to assemble. There are some small, delicate parts in the kit, so tweezers are definitely recommended. The laser cut doors, windows, guttering and downpipes will need painting with acrylic paints prior to assembly. Some of the larger unpainted parts can be easily coloured with a simple permanent marker.

We've rated this kit as Skill Level 2, so not the easiest, but a good example to build a kit in 2mm / 1:148 scale.
