I did this for my town's annual Gingerbread contest, in conjuction with a historical restoration of the Abigail Adams Birthplace, circa 1685, located in Weymouth, MA. Won 1st place. Probably not very impressive to those who don't know the real house, but I worked hard to get it to look exactly like the real thing. 100% edible. House is gingerbread with Royal Icing siding (piped with a petal tip). Roof is gum paste shingles hand-painted to look weathered (you can't tell in this pic). Windows are leaf gelatin. Walkway is Trident gum "bricks."

Winner of two local gingerbread contests (though honestly, there wasn't heavy competition!). Everything edible except the lights inside. Front door and Cakes in the window are made from Gum Paste, all other details are Royal Icing, candy, or gingerbread.
