UPDATE: This house was redone and updated on Sept 7th, 2021 - get the new Less-CC-ified version HERE!

"The various angles and points of this home make some interesting room configurations which are no less practical for their design."
- said the architect. (I just thought it would be fun to live in!)



A few years ago the current owners closed in the garage to make extra living space. With three kids in high-school - at the same time (each one a straight A over-achiever) - they needed a "media" room more than a garage. The media room features wireless Internet, 3 computers, a large flat-screen TV - with a gaming gizmo, as well as their home library and a small 'stove' type wood-burning heater.

Now that the kids have all flown the coop; Mom and Dad are gonna travel and see the World. Well, that's their plan anyway, if they can sell this house for anywhere near what it's worth! The house has been play-tested - through all seasons, all disasters, etc... And, was built with the aide of Numenor's AGS. It requires all EPs/SPs up to Mansion & Gardens.




MAIN FEATURES:
  • Lot size: 30X30 (3X3).
  • Around 2,343 sq ft covered living space - 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath, living and dining rooms, media center/family room, kitchen, rec-room, deck, built in aquarium, and pool
  • Around $98,718 simoleons - I say "around" because I have extensively re-organized my build/buy catalogues and, in doing so, re-priced most everything. I don't know if this will effect the cost in your game or not. If it does, maybe your Sims qualify for a huge tax break? Inheritance? Or, it's their turn to win the lottery?
  • Of note in the Master suite - it has it's own private balcony and the bathroom tile was imported directly from Mexico (by Sandy @ ATS.) Also, a skylight provides bright natural light for both the bedroom and the bathroom.
  • Furnished - Energy efficient appliances and fixtures, with interior/exterior furnishings to make your Sim's new house feel like home.
  • Impressive Buggybooz designer custom kitchen cabinetry
  • Quality high-end Maxis furniture
  • Original oversized Klimt Tree of Life reproduction is the focal point in the main living/entry area.
  • While beautiful solid wood panelling and embossed copper ceilings accentuate the upper level
  • The built in aquarium/outdoor pond, together with a Waterfall wall mural set the tone for the game room below
  • Stairs include three flights of spirals and an elevator
  • Phone, TVs and PCs completely installed; everything is connected via wireless network
  • Invisible/stealth Alarm systems included (for both fire and burglar)
  • Energy efficient Solar power and Natural gas
  • Three Fireplaces including an in-wall outdoor fireplace on the deck
  • A bold color scheme with textured ceilings
  • Ceiling fans in both bedrooms
  • Earth-friendly tile roof and stained concrete driveway
  • Modern designer Maxis doors and windows
