If you want to install the stairs properly, please follow the directions given in the thread linked above. This lot will work just fine if you don't, but you won't be able to select or change the stairs or use them in other lots (they won't show up in the catalogue, which is what the installation procedure is for).


Description:
For sims that are sick of living in the suburbs, Backdoor Lane provides an alternative: a couple of small town lots with a more urban look and feel. They fit together like a jigsaw puzzle, creating a maze of backyard gardens and interconnected alleyways when placed in a tightly spaced neigbourhood. Most of them work as corner lots as well as facing the street, creating a very different impression depending on how you place them and what's on the lot next door.


Backdoor Lane 38
Four small row houses for 2-3 sims each, kind of an all-in-one version of Backdoor Lane 29a/b/c/d but with a slighty different floorplan. Not suitable for large households or shopping addict sims .. this is what goes as "townie dump" in my game.

Each house has:
1 x double bedroom (walkthrough)
1 x single bedroom/study
2 x bathroom
1 x kitchen/dining/living

All houses are fully furnished. Three of them have a basement as well, with access from the front porch (the one not on the screenshot is just like the other two). One basement I've furnished for a single sim who for some reason or other needs to live in a hideout. Parking for three cars (included) in front of the houses.

If you've questions on how to play multi-household lots, please check out Backdoor Lane 10 for discussion and pointers.


Thank you:
This collection (frillen) as well as this one (loba) and that one (windkeeper), the mini lots by Andi8104 and the ones based thereupon (MaryLou) have been very useful in making the Backdoor Lane neighbourhood. Thanks for making them available, as well as for the driveway and stairs I've used in this lot. Extra thanks to Numenor for the BaseGameStarter, without which Seasons/OfB-less people wouldn't be able to use this lot.

Please don't PM me with neighbourhood terrain requests (look in the Neighbourhoods section instead), downloading issues (I can't help you -- look in Site Issues, Q-XPress forums etc), or Build Mode questions (general questions go here, lot specific questions in the d/l thread). Thanks.

Lot Size: 3x2
Lot Price: 134,302§
