Say Thanks!
Thanked!
Okay, I'll be honest.
I'm ashamed of myself.
This was totally going to be a simple starter house, with no CC and ... well. That didn't work out too well for me. But it did for you (hopefully)!
When I first saw this month's theme I knew I had to do something with it. I have a bit of an obsession with tiny little houses and, if you look at my other downloads, you'll notice that kind of bleeds over into The Sims also. So I knew I had to make a tiny house... But how to make it green?
Well that's where my sim came in!
He worked and worked to build this little house just for you guys Spending hours slaving in the junkyard for spare parts, repairing items, upgrading the fireplace, planting a garden and getting some bee-keeping equipment. Just for you! I'm pleased with what he came up with and I promptly evicted him upon completion so that you could move your thrifty/cheap/green sims in instead.
So here it is
It's a completely recycled home with an open living/kitchen area, and a loft bed. There's an outhouse with a toilet. But there is no shower - just a sink. I have a mod that lets my sims take sponge baths that I would suggest getting, but you can easily place a shower in there instead. In fact, there's a fitting shower that can be downloaded along with the sink. It's placed on a 20x20 lot, and the house itself is 3x9.
I've tested it but if you come across any problems please let me know!
It has quite a bit of CC and requires a few EPs and SPs... But they're all totally optional I guess. I mean the house will still be playable without them, with some TLC. But I wouldn't suggest it. Besides, all of this CC is so awesome that you should have it in your game anyways.
You will need Roaring Heights AND Hidden Springs for it to appear exactly as it does in the photos!
There is no checkbox for either, so I couldn't mark them. If you don't have them don't worry about it, as there are only like 3 items used from them combined.
