#the struggle of Tuvok is that he's obviously a very serious & disciplined person who values a more ascetic form of living

I have 2 separate visions for what Tuvok's house looks like.

This is the second one which I don't use as much when I write about it: A large family home on the cusp of being a mansion.

I'm certain Spock's home was a sprawling estate fit for the ambassador's family, consisting of the main home and guests homes and a lot of land that isn't necessarily in use and T'Pol's house we actually see on screen and it's large - built into a cliffside overlooking the city by a bit and sprawling but contained to the cliff itself.

I like to picture a version of Tuvok's home being unusually tall for a Vulcan house - the lone house at the edge of a vast desert. I also sometimes picture the house long and half-circular like a snake about to curl around the land it was built on. In both the home is as close to the desert as possible while still being safe.

I imagine Spock's home to be surrounded by blooming wilderness - trees and flowers occupying the unused land. The further from the main house you walk the more wild and unmanicured the land becomes. I imagine Tuvok's to be surrounded by nothing he and his family didn't plant there. They have to work hard to make things grow, even in the greenhouse.
