Category: Lots & Housing > Residential
Cost: 39.991
Lot size: 3x2
No expansion packs required.
Custom content: 2 x Wallpaper, 1 x Floor, all by myself
Description:
Not technically a starter house, but almost: two independent and fully functional houses on the same lot for twice the price of one. For people who like row houses, or want to play two households at the same time for whatever reason.
This is my last upload made with the original game only -- from now on, everything will require Nightlife.
House 1 (left)
Furnished for 1-2 Sims, small garden with pool + porch. Some landscaping/decoration.
1 x double bedroom
1 x bathroom
1 x kitchen/dining
1 x livingroom
1 x spare room (unfurnished)
House 2 (right)
Furnished for 2-3 Sims, small garden with swing + porch. Some landscaping/decoration.
1 x double bedroom
1 x single bedroom
1 x bathroom
1 x kitchen/dining
1 x livingroom
Basic appliances included in both houses: lights, toilet (1x expensive), bathtub//shower/tub combo, fridge, kitchen sink, trashcan, phone, burglar alarm, smoke detector, bookshelf. House 1 also has a grill and a pool, house 2 a stove and a swing in the garden. NO room for driveways!
Expandability: Basement/second floor might be possible, other than that I don't think so.
Recommended hack: Use Inge Jones' keyholder doors for front doors (www.simlogical.com, under Downloads > TS2 > Hacked Doors), or a similar access management system -- otherwise your sims won't know which house is theirs.
Note:
If you get an "expansion pack data required" error upon installation, please try Clean Installer instead of the Maxis one. Apparently this is a known issue (not specific to this download), see this thread describing the problem and this post (daysies) explaining the workaround.
Enjoy!

Install Instructions
1. Download: Click the download link to save the .rar or .zip file(s) to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file.
3. Install: Double-click on the .sims2pack file to install its contents to your game. The files will automatically be installed to the proper location(s).
- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.
