More home-exteriors have been added to match your home's appearance with your island overall look! By approaching Tom Nook at the construction consultation counter, you will be able to change the appearance of your home.
With the option to change home-exteriors added, you can now also change the shape and outline of your house. Pick from the different architectural styles to match the aesthetic you envision!
Max Storage Capacity has now reached up to 5,000 with the storage expansion in the Version 2.0 update.
House customization is the ability to change the exterior of your house. While you pay your loans to upgrade the size of your home, you will also get the ability to upgrade its exterior appearance.
The customization options are available for your roof, mailbox, door, and siding.
After the 6th house upgrade, which unlocks siding customization, you will also unlock the ability to move your mailbox.
To do so, simply pick it up with the Y button, and place the item from your pockets, like you would do with any other furniture.
You need to unlock the Construction Consultation Counter managed by Tom Nook. For that, you need to upgrade Resident Services.
