I know you get a few of these threads :red. But how many pigs is a 4x4ft play house with a second level of 4x2ft suitable for? A run would be attached for use in the warmer months and a separate run for grazing time.
 
You can get up to 4-5 piggies in there very comfortably, 6 piggies max if you want to cram in as many as the recommended minimum space allows.

However, if you want more than 2 boys, you will have to look for girls, with no more than one neutered boar. Please make sure that the play house is suitably protected against dampness, cold, heat etc.

4 girls, or 1 neutered boar and 3 girls. Or 2 boars. Or 4 boars( if you already have them and their bonded).
 
I'd go 4 girls or sow/neutered boar combo. 4x4 is the same as 6x2 and when I had 4 girls in my 6x2 it did look a tiny bit cramped (hence not having 4 in there anymore) but because you're going to have the extra run space that should be a lot better.
