1920's Vintage Home Design ~ 1-click Foundation 2B/1B Cape Cod, 38th in the Series

The thirty-eighth house in my "1920s Series" - inspired by 62 Beautiful Vintage Home Designs from the 1920s - is a 2 Bed/1 Bath Cape Cod Bungalow. The brochure says, "A Cape Cod home, which by its very simplicity, charms." And, they are quite right! This is a "charming" home - from it's color scheme to it's simple floor plan. All the rooms are large and well thought-out. It's perfect for a small family - it has only two bedrooms, but they are both oversized. You could easily partition part of the Master for an office area; the second bedroom could happily house triplets with all their toys! The house also has a full basement which would make a terrific rumpus room - add a pool table, TV and a dart board - and your sims will have a very happy home.

This lot has been adjusted with Mootilda's GridAdjuster to have a cute little 1-click foundation. The basement is a regular dug-out basement (not a no-slope/page-down-to-the-Nether basement.) It is also Big Dog approved (Thanks to Shasta and Huge Lunatic.)



Please scroll through all the above pictures to see everything this house has to offer. Furniture includes a double bed, two nightstands, one with an alarm clock, a closet, bar, and dining set. All appliances, plumbing and lighting are included. The telephone is on the wall in the dining room (as the original floor plan indicates) The front door is burglar alarmed. The range and fireplace have smoke alarms.


This is a clean copy of this house/lot; no sim has ever lived here. The package has been cleaned with Mootilda's Clean Installer. Pictures were taken with Invisible Fire Alarms in place, but the lot is packaged without that mod. So, you will see the fire alarm over the range in the kitchen and over the fireplace in the living room. Pictures were also taken with the Invisible Driveway, but the lot is not packaged with it. I highly recommend both invisifying options! .

Standard mods I use that are not necessary nor included - but were probably used whilst building/photo-ing/prepping this house for upload...
If you need help installing Numenor's Unlevel Wall #90, click this info button:
I use Niol/Moi's Roof Shader for brighter roofs
And, HW/Honeywell's A Little Greyer: Roof Trim Defaults
Then, if it's a Bespoke Roof recolor - it will be THESE adjusted versions by The Llama Park/Tumblr that you see used in the pictures.
(However, what you get in the packaged file, will either be the plain EA roof or the straight, un-modified Bespoke roof from the set here on MTS2.)
Maranatah's White Wall Top texture replacement
Moo's Turn On/Off Lights
Menaceman's Lunatech Lighting Fix
BeosBoxBoy's no-red-pause-mod
Nopke's Go Under Spiral Stairs mod for proper spiral stair usage
And, of course, everyone needs Numenor's CEP and SEP!
I also use FRAPs to take in-game pictures, and PhotoShop to clean/collage said pictures.
And, I highly recommend using gummilutt's Invisible Medicine Cabinet to add features to any mirror - as per her policy, it's not used or included in this lot.


Lot Size: 2x2
Lot Price (furnished): $37,803
