Default Round Four entry - Gravel
Our last home offered by SimCity Realty is for one Tyler Gravel, up-and-coming football star and ladies' man extraordinaire. This house has a modern flair to reflect Tyler's status as a young, popular athlete famous throughout Sim City.


The main floor of Tyler's new home features a two-story fountain in the entryway, a spacious open living/dining area, and a home gym with a private shower room.



The large backyard offers a pool perfect for cross-training and a jacuzzi to soothe sore muscles, as well as plenty of space to sunbathe or host a barbeque.


The second floor is equipped with two large bedrooms and two baths. The open hallway is brightly lit and contains a stylish reading nook.

The master bedroom is perfect for Tyler, decorated to his taste in seductive tones of red, black, and white. The room's front alcove, decked out with candles and an impressive leopard-skin rug, is perfect for more intimate conversations with guests; while the small, sunny workspace near the bathroom allows Tyler room to indulge in his serious side when in private.

The second bedroom (also with its own adjoining bath) is reserved for Tyler's parents, whenever they come to see his games. This room is done in more reserved tones than the rest of the upstairs so as not to offend their sensibilities, but still retains the same modern feel as the rest of the house.



(Build notes: yes, there is a roof. It kept disappearing when I dropped the camera to street level. The weird pixelation along the roofline is a byproduct of having floor tiles against the wall-windows--there was nothing I could do about it. Also, there *is* deco in the master BR on the wall/floor near the doorway, but due to the angle and the black paint you can't really see it.)

Thank you to wgroome for hosting this challenge. It's been a lot of fun! And thanks to everyone who has been judging!
