Title: Country Living, Part Five Post by: Jenna on April 10, 2007, 02:47:51 pm By popular request, I'm finally uploading the house I used in my Seasons screenshot thread in the pictures forum; it also just happens to be the fifth house in my Country Living series too. So on with the show...
(If you're wondering where part four of the series is, as zTinkerz just pointed out, I never got around to posting it; even though I thought I did. Hah. Just consider the 'Starter Series' I did as part four for now :P) The floors creak, the windows are drafty, there are mice living in the walls, and a large possum lives in the attic. The basement leaks, the walls rattle everytime a door is slammed shut, and a mysterious odor lingers throughout the whole house. Moles, rabbits, and bugs will gladly eat your garden produce, birds will pick apart your floral arrangements for nesting material, and mosquitos will eat you alive when you try to go fishing during the summer. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this here is a real home indeed. Some notes: The exterior was decorated for the sake of taking screenshots. While most of the bushes/flowers are accessible for trimming, a few might not be. The custom shrubs/bushes don't have a snow texture either, so they will look the same year round. The house is beautifully playable though; it was home to three generations of Sims in my game, and a fourth is getting ready to be born in it. Features Requires Uni, NL, and Seasons 3x3 Lot, Hack Free Price: $102,429 - Mostly Furnished. 3+ Bedrooms, 2+ Bathrooms. Finished, unfurnished basement, attached garage Small pond out back for fishing, plentiful room for gardening Custom Content Included (Relax, it's mostly custom wallpaper, and other recolors. Hah) - Lafenetre Glass Door, by Windkeeper at MTS2 - Siding, porch tile, wooden column recolor, vines, and wooden fence by Nengi65 at MTS2 - Oldwood Lattice in White by Loverat at MTS2 - Wooden Stairs *recolorable* by Numenor at MTS2 - White wooden stair recolor by Numenor at MTS2 - Outdoor Lantern by Numenor at MTS2 - Independent Expressions Window by MaryLou at MTS2 - Most plants by Lucas Cardellini of AussieTopenders Sims2, recolors by various people. - Other plants by Unknown - Softline Invisible Counter by Giselle at fashion-show.org - Wallpaper (Formal Beige, Light Green Print, Pineapple Dark Gold) from the Grand Trianon Collection at MTS2 - Christmas 7 Wallpaper by Smooli @ ?? - Say No More Wall in Grey Stone by cyclonesue (I know I'm forgetting something...) Custom Content not Included - Invisible Driveway and Extensions, (http://modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=90875) by roddyaleixo at MTS2 For some odd reason, this isn't always being packed up with the lot. So if you don't have it, download it from the link above. The not-so fine print: keep it off the Exhange. Otherwise, enjoy!

Title: Country Living, Part Five Post by: jaykay13 on April 10, 2007, 08:21:52 pm Wonderful house, If I had seasons I would DLoad it, but it really is lovely.
Title: Country Living, Part Five Post by: Jenna on April 10, 2007, 08:53:25 pm Thanks all, glad you like it. To think, I was originally going to scrap this house, but became rather attached to it. Hah.
...and as to not disappoint, I updated the top post with my usual brand of amusing sales pitch. :P (and I replied to you in the pic thread, lewis hah) Title: Country Living, Part Five Post by: lafleurrouge on April 10, 2007, 09:00:43 pm Beautiful house, the first part of the description reminded me of a song from Oklahoma! but that is beside the point. Thanks.

Title: Country Living, Part Five Post by: zTinkerz on April 11, 2007, 01:06:16 pm This is a really great house.. I liked it so much I had to go check out your other work. I noticed there wasn't a Country Living 4. Was this a misnumber or.. did I miss out on a house? ;) Thank you for sharing.. I love your houses.
Title: Country Living, Part Five Post by: Jenna on April 11, 2007, 01:17:55 pm Hahaha zTinkerz, you're right; there isn't a part four. I forgot I never uploaded that house. :rofl:
...also, the starter series I did technically counts as part four, I just didn't label them to reflect that. :P Title: Country Living, Part Five Post by: Nileke on April 11, 2007, 04:08:24 pm Absolutely beautiful. I love your houses, because they look so realistic. And by the looks of it, I think it's very playable too. That's another thing I love about it.
Title: Country Living, Part Five Post by: csigirl27 on April 11, 2007, 04:54:19 pm great house :D

Title: Country Living, Part Five Post by: oniongirl999 on April 11, 2007, 08:19:48 pm I rarely download ready-made houses because I enjoy building them myself but I can't pass this one up. It looks like something straight out of an Alice Hoffman novel.
