I guess this is a reference to falu red paint on rural Scandinavian houses.

Why is "he is wishing himself a red house" not accepted? I am not a native english speaker, but I would think one could emphasize "seg" with "himself" It would make sense to me anyway. In German it would be "Er wünscht sich ein rotes Haus"

He wishes a red house... - what about that one?

is 'ønsker et rødt hus' correct?

Might someone be able to explain the difference between "ønsker" and "håper". I understand the first means "desire/want" and the latter means "hope" but is there a specific usage of one over the other?

He wishes himself a red house. Sometimes Seg means himself like han selv right?

is wishing for red house has a special meaning in Norwegian? Could anyone please explain ?

There's certainly no shortage of them in Norway.

why he just doesn't color any house in to red?
