First I assembled the porch railing 
and then I temporarily installed it along with the posts and roof. 
Next I temporarily installed the mantle and hearth 
and then assembled and temporarily installed the balcony railings.
I assembled the chimney and temporarily installed it. 
Then I dry-fit the roof in place 
and then dry-fit the stairs and temporarily installed them without risers or treads and I finally temporarily installed the gingerbread. 
This is the most elegant house I have built to date, slightly surpassing the Glencroft (still my favorite, but barely). The rooms are generous-sized and the floorplan lends itself to any layout one could wish. I will "dress" Maggie in a separate album; she has been quite detailed and specific in what she wants, including vertical beadboard walls, baseboards, hardwood floors (I will be unable to scribe my "boards" directly into the plywood after the fact) and tile, board & batten siding, coquina, stone, a tin roof, and an extra room.
