SCREENSHOTS
I designed this house with a specific Sim family in mind, but I hope it might be a good design for others. Usually I build houses based on real-life floor plans, but those always end up with unnecessary closets and rooms that are so large it takes a sim forever to walk across it. The bedrooms aren’t overly large, just big enough for a double bed and night stand and dresser; each bedroom has a bathroom so there shouldn’t be any squabbling! This family had acquired many career rewards, so I put these in a “learning room” at the front of the house so the sims can putt, make candies, and perform surgery all in one place! (this family quickly outgrew their old house; I had to put all the rewards on the lawn.) The living room flows into the dining room and U-shaped kitchen, which has lots of counter space. I also found that the family’s dog likes to have her own room to sleep in, with no TV or radio to wake her up, so I added a “pet/exercise room” which has a door to a private outdoor area; I was hoping the dog would go out here to pee, and I wanted her to have some privacy! There’s also a 1-car attached garage. I make the mom carpool.
But my favorite part is the basement, which is as big as the house. With most families I usually end up with all the musical instruments crammed into some random space, so I built a big stage in the basement that’s big enough to hold the piano, guitar, bass, and drumset. Or karaoke/DJ booth. Kind of make it like a night club—put some tables and chairs down there, the bar, the poker table, a TV…and bathrooms.

- 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.
