How to upgrade house Stardew Valley?

Learning how to upgrade house Stardew Valley is essential for expanding your living space and unlocking new gameplay features. Your farmhouse can be upgraded three times through Robin's carpenter shop, with each upgrade offering significant improvements to your home.

House Upgrade Requirements

First Upgrade: Kitchen Addition

The first house upgrade costs 10,000g and requires 450 wood. This upgrade adds a kitchen to your home, complete with a refrigerator for ingredient storage and the ability to cook meals. The kitchen becomes crucial for creating energy-restoring dishes and completing community center bundles.

Second Upgrade: Bedroom Expansion

For 50,000g and 150 hardwood, the second upgrade adds a bedroom with a crib, allowing you to have children if you're married. This upgrade also includes additional furniture and decorative space to personalize your home.

Third Upgrade: Cellar Addition

The final upgrade costs 100,000g and requires no materials. It adds a cellar beneath your house, complete with casks for aging artisan goods like wine and cheese. Aged products sell for significantly higher prices, making this upgrade valuable for profit-focused players.

How to Start Upgrades

Visit Robin at her carpenter shop north of Pelican Town between 9 AM and 5 PM (closed Tuesdays). Select "Upgrade House" from her menu and ensure you have the required gold and materials. Each upgrade takes three days to complete, during which you cannot access your house.

Planning Your Upgrades

Consider your gameplay priorities when timing upgrades. The kitchen enables cooking early in the game, while the cellar provides late-game profit opportunities. Save hardwood in advance for the second upgrade, as it's harder to obtain than regular wood.
