Dreamlake - 3 Bedroom/3 Bath[?]
However, recently I've been giving alot of thought into what I want in a house, realistically. And so, here it is, a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 1/2 bath home [ get it? ]
Cost - 115,567 simoleans
Acreage - 5x6 Lot
It has three stories - Basement, first and second floors. If one wanted, they could expand into the attic easily enough.
The basement holds a half bath, laundry room, family room, three computer offices and a dual purpose computer/craft room [ for me, I like to do all sorts of crafting ]. It opens up into the fenced in yard for a dog or two, so you don't have to worry about your pets getting into the road. There are two gates out of the yard, one towards the pond and one towards the tiered porch.
The main floor has a foyer that has a stairwell with a door leading out into the study, as well as doors leading to the sunroom and the greatroom. The sunroom opens out onto a two tiered porch, while the great room leads to the dining room. There are entrances to the kitchen/breakfast nook from both the dining room and the study. There is also a 1/2 bath room off of the stairwell/dining room.
The second floor has a large central space leading to the master suite and the two other bedrooms. There is a walkin closet and large master bath for the master suite, with a shared bathroom between the two bedrooms.
Special features include inlaid floors and special carpet. There is no custom floor content in this house - everything is done with the new floor tool in Pets. From the double inlaid stripe in the dining room's hardwood floors, to the celtic knotwork stone tiles in the master bath, everything is done with existing maxis tools and materials.
There are also 3 fireplaces in the house, off of 2 chimney systems, in the family room, study and great room.
There is a little custom content included in this house, though I minimized it as much as possible. It is because of this that the house is not furnished except for the bathrooms. Of course, this lets you decorate as you like, as if you were just moving into a new home.
Custom content
My large trees - enlarged versions of Maxis Bay, Birch and Willow
My timber wall - matches the wood of the stairs and porch flooring.

I also designed this property with the new expansion in mind. It has a pond, and plenty of space for gardens, orchards or a greenhouse. The only thing it is missing is my intended solar panels, they wouldn't turn out right, but maybe I'll figure it out - staytuned for an improved version of this house.
