houseproud
Devoted to tidiness
Houseproud describes someone who takes great pride in keeping their home clean, tidy, and well-maintained—sometimes to an excessive degree.
The word is more common in British than American English: She's so houseproud she won't let anyone wear shoes indoors.
It can carry a hint of gentle mockery, suggesting fussiness about domestic appearances.
