Say Thanks!
Thanked!
I've always wanted to do a big ole cliche farm, but the lack of farm animals kinda ruins it. Until I decided to make dog ranches! Woo!
This baby sleeps six dogs if you are so inclined. For people there are two large bedrooms and two small bedrooms (one is furnished as an office)
It's an earthy, homey place with a little clutter here and there.
But...
You know how if you live in the same place for a long time,
and hit a few yard sales, and pick up some souvenirs while you're travelling, and inherit grandma's antique furniture, and do some bargain hunting...
Then all of a sudden you turn around and your house has a cool hundred grand worth of knick-knacks and no room to walk?
It could happen to anyone.
Options
There are two versions of this lot available: "Tidy" normal version, and the much more expensive and cramped, but still fully functional "Cluttered" version full of books, trinkets, pottery, treasure, all the cute end tables, books and more books
(the outdoor areas are mostly unchanged, but Cluttered has a few more plants to make it look overgrown)
Driveway
There is a driveway extension in the barn and if you put a car there you can use it just like normal, however their will be no animation--the car will just teleport in and out of the garage. You could put a regular driveway over the dirt road so the car will be animated, but the lot won't look as good. Or you could use Sophie-David's Invisible Driveway and have the best of both worlds. (This is just a suggestion, it is neither included nor required, though I imagine most of you already have it)
Just a few notes
- The lot edges are flat
- Constrainfloorelevation false was...actually not used for once. It's a miracle!
- Moveobjects was used constantly and many, many things aren't snapped to grid, but the furniture works. Except in Cluttered: the mirrors at the top of the stairs and the obviously not-for-use chairs in the barn loft.
- There is a phone
- The burglar alarm is behind the fridge
- There is a fire alarm hidden in the chimney in the kitchen, and there are sprinklers in the walls above the fireplaces
A copy of the lots were play tested, but please message me if you run into any problems
Reccomended Mods
- Rugs - zMOG!! Off Grid!! by HugeLunatic --You don't need it, but it's awesome, and if you don't have it some of the rugs will look funky until you pick them up and put them on grid
- Water Inaccesible Flowers by dickhurt --If you don't want it you could of course just delete any problem flowers you run across.
- Trim Inaccessible Bushes by Cyjon --Likewise for bushes
Lot Size: 4x4
Tidy Lot Price (furnished): 199,930
Cluttered Lot Price (furnished): 329,450
Additional Credits:
- Lot size adjusted with LotAdjuster3.6
- No Pause Frame by Nopke
These links are what I used to make Maxis items that normally aren't buyable show up in the catalog for purchase, you don't need the download for them to appear when you load the lot, they are already in the game.

About Me
I definitely spend way too much time playing this game. But almost exclusively the building buildings part, not the micromanaging tiny idiots part. And I sometimes take breaks for months at a time.
I always build CC-free because if I don't have a limited number of options I will never, ever be satisfied and I will spend days and days looking for one counter that fits this kitchen perfectly--and I finally found it--but I had to edit the texture a bit because it didn't tile perfectly, but it's finally done--Oh wait, I changed the wallpaper so now I need to scour the entire internet for counters all over again, and--and I will literally never finish anything. So I've limited myself. But at least CC-free is convenient for downloading. Hope you enjoy them!
Feel free to message me with questions or constructive criticism regarding my uploads.
-- Policy --
-Do not upload my work to other sites.
-Feel free to use my lots in the background for movies or pictures or whatever.
-If you make SIGNIFICANT changes to a lot you may upload it, just not to pay sites.
-For either of the above make sure to give credit and link back to me.
And please use good judgement on the definition of significant. Redecorating one room is not significant. Redecorating the whole house in a different style or for a different purpose is. Adding one room is not significant. Adding a whole other wing or building and updating the landscaping is. That being said if you do use my lot as a jumping off point, by all means message me a link when you upload it because I'd love to see what you come up with.
Weird little sidenote: I often edit lots I download to have different size footprints to fit in with my neighborhood. It can often involve doing tedious things like making a whole building three tiles narrower so that it will fit inside 20 squares, and then a million little changes are necessary to keep the lot functioning and looking good. I don't know if anyone else ever does that, however if you do but then find the result isn't really "significant" enough to be it's own post (4x5 => 4x4 probably not significant, 4x5 => 2x2 significant unless all you did was get rid of the yard) you might want to message me, because I'd be interested in adding yours as an alternate version to download on my original post (with credit and a link to your profile)
