Q&A for How to Make a Mansion on Minecraft

The best place would be on a flat mountain in multiplayer so you can see any people coming towards you or if your on single player a plains or a flat world.

Wood and Stone are the most common materials, since they are easily obtained. You can make your mansion out of any material that you'd like. As long as it looks good to you, that's all that matters.

You'll need to work with the blocks available to you to make the closest representation that you can. Many players find unique uses for blocks to mimic real-life objects. For example, Black Wool is often used to mimic a TV screen.

Put glowstone or lava with glass over it on the bottom of the pool. This will add a glowing effect to the pool. You can also add some glowstone on the sides of the pool.

Take a piece of paper and write down all the rooms you want in your house. Then decide how many floors you want. Then when you are ready, build your building of greatness.

First you do the block design one down one side, one down one side, then two down, one side, two down one side, three down one side, and so on. This way you can ease it more gradually into a straight line, producing a curve.

You can if you want to, just make sure you don't fall off. That might kill you.

If you are in creative, you could use a cauldron. If in survival, you could do a three by three block setup and leave a hole in the middle. Put a trap door there.

It depends on your design. If it is really big, you will need a lot of blocks.

You could have a bedroom, kitchen, living room, etc. in your mansion, but it is completely up to you. You can be creative and maybe put in an indoor pool, or a large library.

Zombies can’t be tamed. They are a hostile mob, and hostile mobs will try to kill you every chance they get.

I’ve always thought medieval mansions were better, but it’s your choice.

It is possible, though it would be much harder to make than a normal mansion.

Dig a one-block deep three-by-three hole. Surround it with cobblestone. In the center of the hole, put four cobblestone going straight up. Pour a bucket of water at the top, remove the stone and you're done!

It depends who your guards are. Villagers are useless as guards, though iron golems and snow golems would be a good addition. Cats as well, because they scare creepers away, and wolves to attack mobs.

Probably an old-fashioned one, because it would be made out of wood and/or stone. On a modern one you'd need a lot of glass, quartz, and materials that are harder to obtain.

You could make a flat surface by clearing trees, blocks, plants, etc.

If you don’t have time to build, you make time. If you want to make this mansion, you’ll have to sacrifice some things.

Every world that is created has three strongholds. One of those strongholds is a woodland mansion - you don’t need a program to spawn one of those.

Yes, it is possible, just stack up blocks however high you want it to be, make a land on top, then break the block underneath and continue building.

Not being able to die in Creative mode is the whole point of being in Creative mode! It allows you to play without fear.

Try taking a picture of the real building, or look up a picture online.

It depends on what other materials you're using, but i would use oak with quartz around the house for a more modern feel.

Keep trying. Mansions are an elaborate structure to build. If you are giving up due to ambushes from mobs, you can try retreating back to your original shelter during rain or thunderstorms to partially counteract the mob ambushes. Make sure to patrol your current progress of the mansion thoroughly, you just might hear a hiss that will erase some of your progress.

For mobs, you can hide during night, rain, or thunderstorms to counteract issues with mob targeting. Once it is over, patrol your mansion thoroughly. A tip is to sneak and wear a hostile mob mask. (Sneaking reduces mob target range by 80%, wearing a mob mask does 20% of the corresponding mob.) for players, try to move away from your spawn position as much as possible. Try to find some place isolated. Then, try to stick to a small mansion. (Bigger than an average house, moderately smaller than a real mansion.) overtime, you can gather materials and expand your mansion. Once done, design traps. The player instructions cannot be guaranteed 100% secure and safe, note that once followed.

Light up your mansion as much as possible, then wait for the bats to despawn.

You can make any colour you like. Choose a style, like medieval or modern. Then build it accordingly. Modern mansions are usually made from quartz or something like it. And medieval ones are mostly wood and stone.

Build one. Use iron bars, glass, or just fences to make it look realistic. Make sure you can see the animals, and that they can't escape and wander around.

There is a search option available in the Creative Mode inventory; you can use it to easily find (almost) any item in-game. Exceptions to this include Barriers and Command Blocks, which aren't in the Creative inventory.

It really depends on what sized mansion you're looking for. The smallest mansions would probably be about 20-30 blocks wide, but they can be as large as you want!
