Susan's house is the farthest house to the right.

Explanation:

We are informed that Laura does not live directly next to Susan, that Kate and Eve are direct neighbors, and that Laura lives further to the left of Kate. From that information, we can slowly start putting this together.

If Kate and Eve are direct neighbors and Laura lives further to the left of Kate (but not directly to the left), we can conclude that the farthest left house must be Laura's as shown below.

Laura | Eve | Kate |?

We were informed that Susan does not live directly next to Laura which means that Susan must live in that last house as shown below.

Laura | Eve | Kate | Susan
