I'm not going to say anything about the fact that some of your tiles appear ripped from my house design... So I will go over your house and point out things I see that should probably be fixed.

1) The window shutter things. It looks like a rush job, and doesn't match the rest of the house tiles. Plus, where is the end? It looks as thin as cardboard without a edge on the end.

2) The perspective. The chimney doesn't really seem like it's at a 3/4th perspective. (well not the correct 3/4th) You should see less of the front side and more of the top. Remember, 3/4th is like a 45 degree angle.

3) Your house tiles lack detail. Aside from the little bottom border thing, all the tiles seem pretty empty. The roof, the chimney bricks, the house bricks, the wooden support beams, the windows, the door... It all seems empty on the inside. Nothing that's really drawing your eye to them or anything. I mean come on, straight lines a wooden beam does not make. All your wood is just using straight lines up and down or left and right, for the most part, and it doesn't give it a wood feeling. It gives it a cardboard feeling.

4) The lights in the windows are... Well, how can I put this... It looks like you've got two Suns in your house. If you're gonna do lighting, do lighting using an actual light script. If it's daytime and
the windows are open, you wouldn't see that much light in the first place. Think about normal situations and relate them to your tiles. During the day you'll probably not see light shining from in a window, but at night, you'll have light pouring from the window out into the grass and stuff. Not just shown inside the house.
