I've made an example house out of blocks. Is there any way to automatically rebuild my model into one solid mesh without unnececarry polygons?

There isn't one. Because you created individual blocks, even when they're joined they're still independent meshes. Tools like dissolve faces only work on completely connected meshes.

$\begingroup$ Yeah... but maybe you can recommend me another "solid" modelling style i don't know about? For me the only that convenient is to build architecture out of blocks. $\endgroup$ Sep 16, 2018 at 10:44

$\begingroup$ Face extruding and scaling should work well for what you're after. For example, say you have a wall that is one face. Select the face in edit mode, press 'E' to extrude, then right-click so it doesn't go anywhere. Now press 'S' to scale it down, 'G' to grab and move it into place, the extrude again, into the wall this time. Voila! A pocket in the wall, all one mesh! Play with that technique for a while, I think you'll like it. $\endgroup$– AdamJan 14, 2019 at 20:29
