Link's house is, naturally, the main character Link's place of residence within Hyrule. Link hails from several different locations in different installments of the series, although there are some in which the plot does not include his home. Such include Link's Awakening-in which Link wakes up in someone else's house, having been shipwrecked; and the original Legend of Zelda, where the game begins in the middle of nowhere on the map.


In A Link to the Past

A Link to the Past begins with Link recieving a telepathic message in his sleep while sleeping at his uncle's (and-we assume-Link's) house. The house is located in a somewhat central location on the overworld map, with Hyrule Castle nearby in the north and Kakariko Village to the west. The lamp can be found inside this house, although besides this, the plot and smashable pots, the house in this game is more or less irrelevant soon into play.


In Ocarina of Time

This game begins with Link being woken up from (another) nightmare involving Princess Zelda by Navi the fairy, on the orders of the Great Deku Tree. Here at Link's house in the Kokiri Forest is where the two first meet, although Navi's first insistance is that Link leaves the house to visit the Deku Tree with haste. The house is more or less irrelevant in the game after a point, although an interesting feature that keeps it's use alive is a scoreboard within the room, with which the player can inspect their achievements in various mini-games throughout Hyrule.

On the outside of the tree in which the house has been made (at the bottom of the ladder) there is a curious child-like drawing of a little figure fending off a dinosaur-like creature. This extra probably depicts Link's forthcoming battle with King Dodongo in Dodongo's Cavern.


In The Wind Waker

In The Wind Waker, Link and his younger sister Aryll live with their Grandmother on a house to the southeast of Outset Island. The house becomes fundamental to more elements of the game's plot than most other games in the series, with Link having to return on various occasions to find a shield and release a bottled fairy onto his ailing grandma, resulting in her infinite offerings of free, revitalising soup!


In Twilight Princess

Link lives in Ordon Village, living near and working at the Ordon Ranch with his colleague and friend Fado.
