Crestview Gardens Appartment Complex
A spacious two bedroom appartment, fit to suit up to a family of three.
The Story of this Lot
This is an appartment that belongs to a single mother and her teenaged son. They have been driven to live in this house after the loss of their home in a disaster and a marital crisis. Times are rough for the both of them, and when they came to Crestview, all they had was their furnature. Together, they filled the rooms and set up the appartment better then the either of them could believe. They still live in the shadow of their past, but their everyday lives become better and better as the days drag on.
Layout and Design
This is an appartment complex lot. The lot contains 8 units, 7 of which are NPC inhabited. The unit that your sims will inhabit is the 3rd unit on the second floor. This unit is a medium sized, single floor appartment. The stairs lead up to a huge living space, with many couches and a huge TV. The Dining Room and kitchen can be entered from this area. The Master Bedroom is sparsely furnatured, but includes everything you need. There is also two "closets" in the room. The smaller room is decorated for a teenaged boy, but can easily changed to fit whomever it may inhabit. There is a desk with computer, two dressers, a boombox, a telephone, and "closet" included with standard bedroom furnature. The bathroom has a toilet, tub, and sink.
How to Edit This Lot
This lot includes build elements that render it un-editable without the use of cheats. To lift the restrictions, the following cheats are needed, and should be typed into the Cheat console by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+C, the cheat, and then enter. Enter each code as shown.

The Lot Size Mixup
There is one minor annoyance in this download. I did not check before building, and realized that this lot has been built on a 20x42 lot, rather than the regular 20 x 40. This means that you CANNOT place this on a 20 x 40 lot. Now, depending on your lot avaliblity, you may be able to place this somewhere else. In most cases, however, you are going to need a method of creating a custom sized blank lot. There are many ways to do this, and it is not that hard to do. If you already have Awesome Mod installed, all you need to do is type "addlotsize 20 42" into the cheat console. Alternatively, you could use the iJLotSizes mod and read those instructions. I'm really sorry about this little annoyance in the lot.
