Beautiful! I couldn't picture what you were talking about when you were describing the location of the garage versus the living area, but now I see! I love this house! Every bit of it, your houses have got to be my favorites!

This is very interesting, i really like it, colour scheme is a bit odd, you should try pastel coloured cladding Apart from that good work


It's ok, we all laugh-snort occasionally!

Thank You for your comment, they are always welcome DD. But I should point one thing out to you In San Francisco the "Painted Lady" Victorian Houses are off beat the colors are always odd, that is what make them Interesting. People there seem to like more rich tone colors, as well as pastel.

I'm not trying to be rude, just a little constructive criticism, I guess I'm the only one that doesn't see it... the painted lady I mean, it just doesn't look like it. Nice house though. I'm not trying to be mean, so don't get mad at me!

I was just going to say the same thing, but you beat me to it first, Spinnell. Its a great looking house, but it is not a San Francisco painted Lady by any means.

All comment are welcome be it negative or positive. But here are the Facts San Francisco Victorians are a mix of "MANY STYLES" not just the Oueen Anne houses.

There are many, many Styles of the "Painted ladies" Victorians found in other neighbohoods in San Francisco, Not just Alamo Square area where a lot of Queen Anne houses are found, those houses have been used in movies and Television as well as post cards. So Many people may think that is what San Francisco victorians all look like when there are so many more styles not yet seen in the bay area.

My family is from San Francisco.

The house is nice and you did a pretty good job on it. Personally, I don't think it looks like a Victorian or an Edwardian, and the windows, roof and color placement are a little haphazard. I don't mind the contrasting colors at all, but the placement seems a bit off, in terms of Painted Ladies. Generally, these houses have a lot of little architectural details, and that's where the colors come into play, not just in blocks on the face of the siding; that's pretty hard to pull off in a Maxis-only house, though. The row-style houses (whether they are Queen Anne, Italianate or Edwardian) are very distinctive of San Francisco. I'm not sure your house fits that classification, but I can imagine it in a wealthy section of town with broader homes and bigger yards. Overall it's a nice house, and you obviously put a lot of work into it. Thanks for sharing.

I don't know what a Painted Lady looks like so I'm not judging against anything. I love it! I love the layout and the big yard. I have such a hard time finding houses with big enough yards so I can have a greenhouse but still a reasonable yard. Wonderful house, really.

I have to say that i really didnt know how a painted lady has to look like(just a woman with lots of body painting on her *rofl*)
but know i looked it up and i have to say, i think it somehow looks like one.
For all the others,..dont judge to early, we havent even seen a picture of the real house that was inspiring for simonut, maybe this simshouse really really looks like it.
Lots of my simshouses are inspired by real existing one or are base on architectural themes... its hard to construct these houses with the sims, there is another scaling and there is still not enough building content that allows us to rebuild these houses exactly like they look like in real life.

I LOVE THE HOUSE SIMONUT! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK1

This one is very nice too. I love how you use full-wall mirrors in some areas, it brings an illusion that the room is wider. Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful house, and very pleasant to play.
The Goodie couple that came with Apartment Life, old Herbert and Faith, live in it in my game (Riverblossom Hills), and they enjoy its elegance and comfort very much.
I also really like how nice it looks from neighbourhood view and seen from the neighbours' windows, with its unique shape and colours.
Thank you!
