Which Zelda game lets you build a personal house?
Tears of the Kingdom lets Link buy a plot and assemble a personal house from room units. The game is a direct sequel to Breath of the Wild, but the two games use Tarrey Town differently: Breath of the Wild has a town-building project, not the same customizable home system. Nintendo’s developer interview describes the sequel and its return to the same Hyrule setting.
| Game | What Link builds | Personal modular house? |
|---|---|---|
| Breath of the Wild | A town project at Tarrey Town | No |
| Tears of the Kingdom | A customizable home near Tarrey Town | Yes |
How to unlock the house in Tears of the Kingdom
- Go to Tarrey Town in Akkala. Find Hudson Construction and speak with Rhondson.
- Complete Mattison’s Independence. The side adventure involves helping Mattison with her Gerudo-language practice and a balloon project. The guide reports that you need ten Sundelions for the balloon dye.
- Speak to Rhondson again. After the side adventure, she offers the Home on Arrange service. The plot is reported to cost 1,500 rupees at the discounted price.
- Visit the plot southeast of Tarrey Town. It is near Rasitakiwak Shrine. Talk to the attendant there to begin placing rooms.
- Use Ultrahand to arrange the rooms. Start with the two basic rooms, position and join them within the marked area, then ask the attendant to check the layout.
Nintendo identifies Tears of the Kingdom as a direct sequel to Breath of the Wild; the house steps and prices here are guide-reported gameplay details, not real-world costs.
What can you build, and how much does it cost?
The home is made from room units you can purchase and arrange. The guide reports a maximum of 15 units and says the attendant checks that the layout fits and does not block access. You can later move rooms, store them, or sell them back.

The plot is southeast of Tarrey Town, close to Rasitakiwak Shrine. At the site, the attendant marks the build area and checks your arrangement. Use Ultrahand to position and connect the rooms, keeping the structure within the designated space and leaving access unobstructed. Kiranico’s transcription of the Home on Arrange quest describes buying land and rooms through Hudson Construction, then deciding where to place the first two rooms.

- Ultrahand: Using the new Ultrahand ability, Link can pick up, move, and rotate almost any object, and can even attach objects together to create bridges, vehicles, and more!
- Fuse: Magically fuse almost any object to Link’s current weapon, shield, or arrow to increase durability, damage, or even add a new effect. Experiment with lots of different combinations to come up with surprising—and sometimes hilarious—results!
- Ascend: Add a new dimension to your exploration with Ascend, which gives Link the ability to pass through solid objects above him. Rise up through ceilings, hillsides, and even certain enemies to create seemingly impossible shortcuts.
- Recall: Use Recall to make objects in motion move backward through time, letting Link ride fallen boulders skyward, recover thrown weapons, or send projectiles back where they came from.
