There are a ton of places in Stardew Valley where you’ll spend a lot of time, but none of them more than your own home, the farmhouse. Initially, you’ll reside in a small, one-room cabin, but you can upgrade it to a huge house with several different rooms, designed however you please.
It’ll cost you quite a bit of money and resources to fully upgrade your farmhouse, and there are other changes to make along the way. Here’s every Stardew Valley house upgrade and renovation and how to obtain them.
Standard Farmhouse Designs
The initial layout of your farmhouse and the furniture it starts with are determined by which farm layout you choose. For example, if you choose the Standard Farm, you’ll have some basic wooden furniture, flooring, and wallpaper; if you like the Forest Farm, expect some trees, leafy garland, and leaf-motif wallpaper; and so on.
All of this furniture can be obtained regardless of the farm you choose, so don’t let this determine which layout you select when making a new file.
How to Upgrade Your House In Stardew Valley
There are a few different changes that will be made to your farmhouse as you play through your in-game years. But, the most direct way to upgrade it is by visiting Robin at her Carpenter Shop on the Mountain, north of town.

First Upgrade – Kitchen And Bedroom
The first time you upgrade the farmhouse, it’ll cost 10,000g and 450 pieces of wood. This upgrade separates the main living area from the bedroom, placing the bed in a separate room to the right and upgrading it to a double bed (which you can now move in the newest update). It also adds a small kitchen.
This kitchen can be used to cook meals and refill your watering can, and it also comes with a fridge where you can store items like a chest. You can prepare meals if the ingredients are in the fridge, acting as a sort of extension to your inventory when cooking.
The Old Mariner will not sell you the Mermaid’s Pendant if your house isn’t upgraded at least once.
With this upgrade, you can now get married or add Krobus as a roommate. Prior to this, you cannot marry anyone, as the house is too small.
Once you get married or have Krobus move in, your spouse/Krobus will add a room to the right-hand side of your farmhouse. These special rooms will be covered later on in this article.
Second Upgrade – Nursery
The second time you upgrade your house, it’ll add two new rooms. One of them is an empty room that you can do whatever you want with. The other one is a small nursery-like room with a crib and two single beds.
With this upgrade, you can now have children with your spouse. In addition to the new rooms, the existing kitchen and bedroom are made slightly larger. This upgrade costs 50,000g and 150 pieces of hardwood.
Luckily, if you aren’t the child-raising type, you can remove the cribs and beds from the nursery, allowing you to use the room how you like. Just talk to Robin about this renovation, which is explained below.
Third Upgrade – Basement
This third upgrade doesn’t add more rooms to the main floor but instead introduces a basement to the house. In the basement, you can place casks to age certain artisan goods, increasing their quality and therefore their value. Casks will only work if placed here.
Initially, Robin provides you with 33 casks, but you can fit almost 200 if you fill every space. Some players completely fill the entire basement with casks, then pick them all up when they’re ready, placing them back down and filling them while backing themselves out.
This upgrade doesn’t require any materials but will cost you 100,000g.
Spouse Rooms
When you marry one of the six bachelors or six bachelorettes in town, they’ll move into your farmhouse and add a small room to the right-hand side, next to the bedroom.
Each of these rooms is themed around that particular character. If you decide to ask Krobus to be your roommate instead of marrying someone, he’ll also add a room to the side of your house.
Here are the details of each spouse room:

Additionally, when you choose the option in Robin’s menu to construct farm buildings, you can now paint some of them, too. This includes the farmhouse. You can change the roof, siding, and trim to basically any color you want. Until you fully upgrade the exterior, though, you can only change the roof color.
