doll house for a boy

I am looking for a doll house which is not too girly and has a letter box on its door.
Ds likes houses and has been playing with his teddy's house shaped cardboard box (you know, build a bear ones).
(Is it a bad idea to buy a doll house to a boy?)

That really looks fab notanotter but I think the Happyland one is better my DS as he is only 2.
Thanks, gigglewitch. I had a look at all the happyland range. Do you have the Police Station as well? If you do, can I ask whether the traffic lights are working?

no - I think that is the only thing we don't have as it's a more recent thing, we haven't added to our 'collection' in the last 2yrs or so, well p'raps 18 months - but fwiw the things on other houses, shops and everything have flushing loos , ding-donging doorbells, singing tv's etc etc - so it is quite possible that the traffic lights do their thing Sirens on fire station work etc - perhaps buy yourself some earplugs whilst you are shopping?
Btw, if you're buying online, either join the big birthday club asap for your own vouchers, or put PARTY in at the checkout, which will get you 20% off
