See... the 70's weren't so bad! *shudders*
Now... in my RL 1970's existence (or should that be "experience"?) my Mom chose 'Sunny' yellow as her carpet color; but, I had a friend who's Mom chose Raspberry - I loved going over to her house - her Mom was cooool! Ever since, I've wanted a house with raspberry carpeting of my own! So, here it is: :lovestruc


My friend also had a foxy older brother who had a "band" - I told you I loved going over to her house It wasn't just for the carpet you know!
He and his buds would've been right at home in this garage - open the door, and crank out the tunes!


The outside look of this house is inspired by a house down the street from me now - whenever my daughter and I take a walk we go passed it, and I'm always saying, "I gotta 'sim' that place!" She agrees. So, I finally did it. I have no idea what the inside of that RL house looks like. This floor plan and it's features are completely fictional, ...though they do somewhat remind me of my aforementioned friends house. LOL! Here is the floorplan:



Please scroll through all the pictures to get a better feel for this house. No sim has ever lived here - this is a clean copy of the lot. It has been tested for playability - the bathroom was reworked to allow access to the tub - the garage works as intended. There is a place to park your car on the driveway. All alarms and phones, etc are included.


Necessary, and NOT included - GO get it:
This floor - Solid Shades: WFPink 01 - by ohbehave007 @ MTS2

This wall - Sunday Morning Siding: Chocolate - by Klaartje @ MTS2
The - Invisible Basketball Court - by mike19 @ MTS2
And - The Basketball Hoop Fix - by LeeFish


NOTE: If walls are missing when you first visit the lot, exit without saving and add Numenor's Unlevel Wall - #90 to your DL folder before loading this house again. Sometimes I use this wall instead of the CFE cheat when building houses.

Standard mods I use that are not necessary nor included - but were probably used whilst building/photo-ing/prepping this house for upload...
I use Moi's Roof Shader
Maranatah's White Wall Top texture replacement
Moo's Turn On/Off Lights
Menaceman's Lunatech Lighting Fix
BeosBoxBoy's no-red-pause-mod
Numenor's AnyGameStarter/AGS
I also use FRAPs to take in-game pictures, and PhotoShop to clean/collage said pictures.


Lot Size: 3x3
Lot Price (furnished): $94,894
