I always seem to spawn in jungles right next to plains biomes. So I generally always build my house in the jungle, while stationing my mine in the plains. Then, I create a low-tech village, and a high-tech city right next to each other. Though, I usually get bored of the world and delete it before these goals are completed.

Not that 1 end island though. My map is custom, so the end is split into different regions. I live in Nagrand, a fairly nice place. Grassy islands are the main part of it. There's 2 villages (Garadar and Telaar) which have unique things. Garadar... I'm actually not sure. There's a potion shop though. Telaar is mainly farming. Oh yeah, and there's some ruins. The entrance is in Garadar, so maybe that's what's special.
I have a castle in extreme hill biome, with main building near meeting point of desert, forest (lot of it deforested) and swamp, jungle in sight. Then I have sort of country manor at the border of plains and forest.
In my newest world I live in a forest biome just across a river from a jungle biome with a desert biome and a plains village just a few hundred meters the other way. I spawned right there and there was a small hill with a tiny cave in it right at the end of a ravine that had abandoned mineshafts sticking out into it.
I really hit the jackpot, the tiny cave was easy to move into for the first night and afterwards as I explored the mines (which are the biggest tunnel system I have ever found yet) and gathered resources I decided to just settle in right there as my main base. Where the hill was is now my house, although as always seems to happen with me there is even more house below ground than above it.
In the Nether. Before, building bases in the overworld was fun, but after I moved into the Nether, no other players (In my server) would be able to find me. Also, there were more challenge to it, making me able to build the safest base ever (To be specific to your biome question:Nether is the hell biome).
I used to live in a forest biome with an average 2 story house and farm, but then creepers blew all that up so I relocated to a nearby snow biome and built a complete, full-fledged house made out of nether brick on top of a tree, with stairs coming down just so I could avoid those annoying, explosive mobs. (they blew up the stairs)
You are all actually suggesting that you have ONE house? It boggles my mind. In every world, I have four houses, and yes, I know, this arrangement is hard to find, and takes literally hours of boating, etc. to find. I have one home on a mushroom island. Food source, nothing more. Another home on a close by land mass, on the border between a desert and a jungle which both have temples. wood source, pet source, retreat, water source. I have another in a snow mountains biome, built as a dome off of the side of the mountain. This is my throne, underneath which there are underground farms, an access point to a stronghold, a nether portal, and more. My fourth house is a grand castle, built into a spire of an extreme hills biome, towering into the sky with a sky farm on top, waterfalls and lava falls running down it's sides. At the base the whole hills biome is fenced with a wall of obsidian and stone, check board pattern, with many iron golems below to guard my valley. Below, there is my mine, for emeralds, gold, diamond, etc. all of them are connected with mine carts. And none of them desecrate their biome. Checkmate noobs

Biomes are for the weak. I live in the end.

Someone read the "Hypochondriac's pocket guide to horrible diseases you probably already have"
don't click this link...
But in my current survival world, I made rooms underground.
Win.
