Gothic Piles: The Arboretum

Visitors used to come from as far away as Sim City to stroll through The Arboretum's famous gardens and admire this fine example of gothic architecture. Now those gardens lie untended and overgrown and the house's shadowed halls are the haunt of vagabonds and vampires.

3x5 lot, 66,277 unfurnished. 2 floors with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, garage, atrium and conservatory. Outside, stream with bridge to secluded woodland graveyard. Note: tombstones shown in pics NOT included. I'm sure I got them from here ages ago but I can't find the thread and don't know who made them. I've replaced them with ornamental urns in the download. Sorry, but I reckon anyone who likes this sort of lot will probably already have some custom tombstones...or won't mind slaughtering a few sims to provide some!

Custom files included...

Sims1 Wood Columns by Maxis and converted by Kiri at www.simthing.net
Peeling Paint Windows by McTrick at www.mctricksplace.com (the best windows ever!)
Cupid Commando Statue by Maxis
Thanks to them for some great stuff!
Also, 1 wall and 1 floor by me.

Install Instructions

Basic Download and Install Instructions:

1. Download: Click the download link to save the .rar or .zip file(s) to your computer.

2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file.

3. Install: Double-click on the .sims2pack file to install its contents to your game. The files will automatically be installed to the proper location(s).

• You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.
