a 21-house series of homes from 1912
House #07 - English Half-timber Cottage
5 bedrooms - 2 bathrooms - carport
2-Step Foundation with a No-Slope Basement
lightly furnished & ready for you to decorate
From A Book of House Plans: Homes of Character
by W.H. Butterfield & H.W. Tuttle, 1912
I intentionally keep my builds lightly furnished - with only EAxis stuffeths - so that you can have all the fun of decorating it! (Please CC-it-up once you get it in your game!) All appliances, plumbing and lighting are included; along with smoke and burglar alarms, and telephones.
This is a clean copy of this house/lot; no sim has ever lived here.
The lot was cleaned and compressed with Chris Hatch's Lot Compressor.
The package was cleaned with Mootilda's Clean Installer.
This lot has an easily identifiable custom thumbnail too.
The sun is oriented to the front.
There is parking for two vehicles; one under the carport, and one on the driveway.
This is a pet-friendly build. No pet items are included, but there is plenty of room to add what you need.
This house has a 2-step foundation - so if you want to allow large dogs inside, they are going to need Simler90's Stair Mods to be able to access the 2-Step foundation.
TIP : If, when you first enter the lot, arches/doorways are not "cut through" - save, exit to the hood, and re-enter. Fixed! ;)
Definitely used but NOT included:
Get this item if you want the house to look exactly as shown in the pictures.
- Sophie-David's Invisible Driveway
Custom Content Included
- Mia's Chimneyless Fireplace
Lot Size: 30X20
Lot Price: $45,798
Special "Thank YOU" to Crete/SimmingRegency for sharing this book of house plans with me!
And to Mootilda - who's Grid and Lot Adjusters were used to create these houses for the Sims 2.
