What type of house did a medieval blacksmith live in?
Blacksmiths had to learn their skills through apprenticeship. This put them a bit above the ordinary peasant, but not much. They lived in villages and towns, but most of the villages were on manors, and so the houses in them were mostly peasant cottages. Presumably, the blacksmiths could afford to live in better houses than many of the peasants, but there were other people on manors who also had skills that put them slightly above the ordinary workers, and these included any weavers, potters, and carpenters, who happened to be there, along with the reeves and other officers of the serfs. So the blacksmith's house would not have been much better than that of serfs. There is a link below to an article on serfs' houses.

What would medieval peasants be doing in medieval towns?
Most medieval peasants lived and worked on manors, but some lived in towns. Those who lived in towns were mostly laborers of one sort or another, porters, laboring helpers for craftsmen, wagon drivers, cleaners, and so on. Those who lived on the manors went to town to sell their products, which were mostly agricultural, and buy various things they needed at market. During the Middle Ages a town was a place where there was a permanent market, and had to have a royal charter for this purpose. Markets were strictly regulated so they would not be too close to one another. During the reign of William the Great, there were only eight market towns in England, aside from the cities. This, however, was not an indication of the number of communities of significant size, so much as it was a matter of the number of charters that had been granted.
