So I've been plot resetting and my plan is to get 3 villager houses in a row horizontally, two spaces apart each. But the only way to do that is if the first villager plots their house two spaces away from mine. Is it possible for a villager to move in that close to a player house? So far I've only got a plot 3 spaces away when resetting.
How close can a villager move next to a PLAYER house?

At least depending on the space around the area I think.
They can move two spaces from the side of your house, as was already said.
I learned that the hard way, with Shari ruining my only perfect apple and mango tree, by moving too close, lol.
Hope everything works out like you want ^-^

if it was you I'd never want to leave...
at least 2 to 3 tiles away.

They can be very close, a couple of squares is the minimum I think. I haven't had them move next to me because of my house location but I've had several villagers in a row or going either way that have been placed as close as I would think possible.
Close enough that they can look into your windows, right Grizzly? He is literally two steps away from my mayor's home in Big Bear Village, smushed in between my house and the rock facade wall. How he managed that is beyond me. It is fantastic!!

blue area ( including yellow square ) is the building itself.
• pink area is the space around the building.
• yellow square is the coordinates that ACNL uses to pinpoint where the building/pwp is.
All houses have a "buffer zone" that nothing save flowers can be on, and if anything spawns there or you place things there with an editor they are immediately wiped out when you start up the game and have Isabelle "prepare your town". Usually, save for Homebrew editing, nothing will even spawn there in the first place.
With the legitimate plot method it is possible to have a villager house move 2 spaces (aka 2 places you can set down a flower) away horizontally, 3 vertical, but this is the minimum space the game will allow normally.
The game, however, technically allows a house to be 1 spaces away from each other horizontally, but this doesn't happen naturally.
This is about the closest I can get the houses to each other with a save editor, you would just have another space there if you are doing this legit.
(Of course this is the screenshot of the one time I got coordinates wrong and had a good laugh about how me and my villagers were floating over the cliff.)
TL;DR Code allows for as little as 1 space horizontally between but you are limited to 2 spaces between with in-game methods.
