Start off with a 9×9 square shape out of cobblestone

Now build a few towers/poles out of logs. The poles in the middle are 9 blocks tall, the other poles are 8 blocks tall. These dimensions include the cobblestone wall.

Connect the two poles up front with a horizontal beam and put another small pole on the middle of it.

Conect the rest of the poles

Fill up the square with wooden planks for a floor.

Time to build a porch

Nothing much to say. Note that this is the front of your cabin.

These poles are 5 blocks tall each

Finish the terrace

And put one more beam on top of the logs

This is going to be the chimney

Put cobblestone walls on the edge of the terrace and add a layer of cobblestone to the rest of the house

Continue to finish the walls on the bottom floor. Leave an open space for the windows…

… except for where the chimney is going to be.

Add glass panes and trapdoors to finish the windows

These are the walls for the attic

Now build the roof

Note that the overhanging part of the roof consists of slabs

Continue to make a roof for the porch out of slabs

Add cobblestone stairs and blocks to support the walls.

Have all the log intersections stick out one log

And finish the chimney with 5 block high supports.

Put buttons on the logs that stick through the roof

Interior

This is where the stairs are going to be

Make the stairs look a little better from below by adding upside down stairs.

The ceiling is made of slabs, so the logs give a cool effect.

The kitchen, with a working fridge and a food chest.

Finished interior. I removed the pillar in the middle for visibility

another pic

and there’s the interior *with* the pillar.

This is the attic as seen from the stairs. Make two holes in the walls and put windows into them

And as always, put some trapdoors on the outside

Here’s an enchanting table. The books will be where the chimney is so don’t worry.
