You must download the Berkeley crib and changing table mesh and Dark Wood recolors from HopeB (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=59809)

I began this house shortly after Pets was released to showcase some of the new building tools such as diagonal rooms and individual roof slope. It's taken me this long to decorate it to my taste :). It does have some custom content, though be assured, for every piece I used I did truly try to find a Maxis alternative, but there's only so far Maxis can go.

Expansions required: all - Uni, NL, OFB, Pets, Seasons, BV
Lot: 2x2
Price: $125 K
Bedrooms: 2 +nursery
Bathrooms: 3
Other amenities: basement, driveway, ground floor nursery/bedroom, ready for pets.

I had to add a folder with the Maxis recolors into the .rar because Maxis packaging no longer picks them up. Please move the folder into your Downloads and install the house which has the rest of the CC.

A clone of this house has been playtested throughout the building process. All landscaping should be "gardenable." You can fit a few gardening plots in between the columns of the right side of the house (as you look at it). The trees in back can be replaced by orchard trees should you desire apples, lemons, and oranges. A door can be placed upstairs out to the balconey and using moveObjects on, a hot tub can be placed up there. The house was built to take advantage of the view available where its placed in my neighborhood (Lake Crossing (http://modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=193649)). Feel free to replace the low border with more fence in the back courtyard if you don't have a spectacular view like my Sims do. My goal, as with all my houses, is that it's playable and good looking.

Thank you lewisb! It was such a struggle to do the outside, and i'm not sure why. I'm happy with the way I did finish it and it ended up pretty simple. Good thing because the first time I finished it up, I'd inadvertently clicked on a terrain paint at some point and so the lot was borked and I had to redo it from a clean copy.

Enjoy! I didn't remember to test the massage table upstairs, so I hope it works against a wall like that.
