Custom content included: Balustrade Stairs by Brasstex, one wallpaper (originally by Holy Simoly, edited by me)
If you want to install the stairs properly, please go to the thread linked above and follow the directions. This lot will work just fine if you don't, but you won't be able to select or change the stairs or use them in other lots (they won't show up in the catalogue, which is what the installation procedure is for).
Description:
For sims that are sick of living in the suburbs, Backdoor Lane provides an alternative: a couple of small town lots with a more urban look and feel. They fit together like a jigsaw puzzle, creating a maze of backyard gardens and interconnected alleyways when placed in a tightly spaced neigbourhood. Most of them work as corner lots as well as facing the street, creating a very different impression depending on how you place them and what's on the lot next door.
Backdoor Lane 31a
Starter house version of Backdoor Lane 31 -- the floorplan is exactly the same but it's much less furnished, less nicely painted etc. Three-story town house with basement on a 1x3 mini lot, sparsely furnished for 1-2 sims with room for more, empty garden behind the house.
1 x double bedroom
3 x bathroom (2 furnished)
1 x kitchen/dining
3 x spare room (empty)
All basics included (phone, lights, bookcase etc) except for a fire alarm since there's no stove or anything. Enough room for two driveways in the yard but none included (Invisible Driveway muchly recommended should you add one).
Thank you:
This collection (frillen) as well as this one (loba) and that one (windkeeper), the mini lots by Andi8104 and the ones based thereupon (MaryLou) have been very useful in making the Backdoor Lane neighbourhood. Thanks for making them available, as well as for the stairs I've used in this lot.
Please don't PM me with neighbourhood terrain requests (look in the Neighbourhoods section instead), downloading issues (I can't help you -- look in Site Issues, Q-XPress forums etc), or Build Mode questions (general questions go here, lot specific questions in the d/l thread). Thanks.
Lot Size: 1x3
Lot Price: 19.994§
Custom Content Included:

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.
