Where to begin, I started making the house from Onegai Twins, an anime, semi-sequel to Onegai Teacher. (Onegai = Please) although I was not able to get it to come out the way I wanted (stairwell and a few other things) and I added a basement (because I like them) I still think it came out fairly cool.
Some of the plants pictured are not included because I am noste sure where I got them exactly, probably from MtS2...
I origonaly had it decorated with some alternate wooden flooring and walls (most of witch came from PeggySims) but I didn't want to include tihngs I didn't make. I did include some of the walls and one floor that I made for the

The main character drove a scooter bike so i was going to use a motercycle i found on mts2 but its better to wait untill the sims wants one to buy a vehical anyway, same with things like shower, toilet, etc so I left it mostly empty other than the hot tub in the bath room, because they share a bath in alot of these anime's I use the hot tub to represent that and usualy include the open shower that came with Uni. but again I was attempting to make it useable by as many people as possible, I figured you could add what you wanted. oh well enough of my rambleing, here are the pictures...
I hope you enjoy
oh and it costs about $44,000, not quite a starter home, but not a mansion either, with a good bit of room to improve if you feel like it. and as is its got alot of room, intended to have 2 bedroom, 1 office, bathroom, kitchen, livingroom and den + basement, but it can work sevral difrent ways.
I should also mention I origonaly used the ascention stairs, I removed them also incase you didnt want them. I personaly love them, but they are kind of cheeting.
