Hearthside Cottage — Christmas Cottage with Press-Fit Door and Gridfinity Base

**A Christmas cottage that locks into your Gridfinity desk — with a door you print in red. Free.**

The Hearthside Cottage is a gabled Christmas cottage on a true 2×2 Gridfinity base (84×84mm): four tapered feet lock it into any standard baseplate so it can't slide or tip like a novelty house, and it stands flat on a bare desk too. The front door is a SEPARATE file that press-fits its recess (0.2mm clearance) — print the cottage gingerbread and the door red and you get a two-colour cottage with no AMS and no filament swaps. Recessed windows, a round attic window, an overhanging roof and a capped chimney are all sculpted in. It completes the desk Christmas village next to the Everglow Tree and the Frostfriend Snowman — same Gridfinity footprint, all three.
