BumbleBee Farms ~ 4B/3B/Gar with Basement, and Wrap-Around Porch - minimal CC

Seriously though... I plan to play this lot in Riverblossom Hills - with two elderly brothers (hence the two Master bedrooms upstairs with a shared bathroom.) One brother will grow fruit trees, while the other will be keeping bees. (Not 'Bumblebees' - I know but I liked the alliteration of it!)
I'm going to be using The Bees Knees Apiary Set from Sun & Moon's Star Factory on Tumblr. There should be plenty of room in the back yard to set up both bees and orchard. If they are successful, they may open a home business... we'll see.


I hope you have someone in your game who could use this cheery little farmhouse .

Please scroll through all the above pictures to see everything this house has to offer. The house is lightly furnished, and very sparsely decorated. All appliances, plumbing and lighting are included. The stove, grill, and fireplace/stove, all have smoke alarms. The front door is burglar alarmed. The telephone is on a kitchen wall.

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.

There is parking for four vehicles; three on the long driveway, and one in the garage.
Because the garage is oriented sideways, there are no driving animations. Sims will still use the vehicles as they normally do.

This is a pet-friendly build. You will need to add pet items, but there is ample space and bathroom tubs are accessible for dog washing.

Pictures were taken with the following item in place, but they are NOT included:
- Invisible Driveway by Sophie-David @ MTS2
- Invisible Smoke Alarm by pfish @ MTS2
- Backless Tub/Shower combo by Huge Lunatic (HL) @ MTS2

Possibly used but NOT included - so, you may need to GO get it:
--- I use the Lifestyle Build Bundle wallpapers/floors ALL the time. (If you followed that link, it's the second link in the top post - extracted from Lifestyle Stories by Argon @ MATY) This 'bundle' lives back in my Bins folder so it doesn't have the CC star. If you ever enter one of my builds and find it has blank/unpapered walls/floors, it is because I used ones from this bundle and forgot to mention it. So, either substitute the wall/floor of your choice, or go get this bundle and re-install the lot (from your lot bin.)

Definitely used and NOT included - you MUST go get these before installing this lot:
- HugeLunatic's White Wooden Fence - for the porch railing and columns.

- Deck Stairs REC - Washed White by HugeLunatic (HL) @ MTS2

Standard mods I use that are not necessary nor included - but were probably used whilst building/photo-ing/prepping this house for upload...
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.
