OK, now that's officially awesome!  ;D I've never seen one, but it was obviously done the same way a ship in a bottle would be. That is so cool! to get a value, it might be good to contact some ship in a bottle collector groups, they should have a good handle on what something like this might be worth.

I did a bit of hunting and found some quite impressive pricing for fancier houses in bottles:

4K for this one:

$800 for these minis:

Here is the Web site of the maker of the 4K house above:
