Just browsing and dreaming, but would you?

It's very cute, but you will be paying a lot for 'cute'! It's too small, and too short, and too expensive.

Definitely too short - those are kids in the photo. As an adult you'd spend every moment in there bent in half. And too small as well, the measurements include things like the porch which isn't chicken usable space.

I know where you're coming from though, I too considered getting a kid's playhouse and modifying it, but practicality won out over cute - paying extra for decorative trim and having no headspace to work with just wasn't worth it, when I could get a larger, functional, simple coop instead.

I would have no problem using a cedar shed/playhouse as long as it wasn't aromatic. My shed has some cedar trim and I also have aged cedar chips mixed in my litter and there hasn't been any issue, the aroma is very low.

A couple of things on the cedar. Cedar shavings have a lot more surface area than cedar planks and will give off more fumes for the same volume so shavings are more risky. How much risk there is will still depend a lot on ventilation. It it is really truly well-ventilated at all times the risk is a lot less than if ventilation is restricted and the fumes can build up.

Back when girls kept "hope chests" the tradition was to build them out of cedar planks. There was no ventilation, the cedar fumes would build up enough to keep insects out of the chest. When you opened them the fumes were really strong. If ventilation is not good even planks can build up enough fumes to kill insects. I'd consider that dangerous to chickens as their respiratory systems are not that strong.

In a well-ventilated coop I'd have no problems using cedar planks for anything touching the ground. Cedar is a rot resistant material, it is good for foundations. Well-cured cedar fence posts last a long time. I would not use cedar for nests or anything else enclosed.

Personally I might use well-cured cedar for bits and pieces inside a coop if it were free, but I would not use much and it would need to be well-cured. I would not use cedar shavings or chips as bedding as my bedding goes in the garden in the fall and I want it to rot. Cedar is rot resistant.

And the "kids" are not even in the so called coop they are pasted in!

At the OP starting with a shed is a good way to start.
