Custom content included: Open underneath Wooden stairs by crocobaura; Invisible Driveway by frillen (this didn't make it into the package, so I included it as a separate file -- put in your Downloads folder before attempting to play this lot).
If you want to install the stairs properly, please check out the thread linked above -- this lot will work fine if you don't, but the stairs will not 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 45:
City starter on a 1x2 mini lot, furnished for 1-2 sims with room for more. Access is from the back yard via a small covered porch; open kitchen/dining and toilet on the ground floor, living area, bathroom and spare room on the first (second, middle, whatever) floor, the top floor is used as a double bedroom. You could squeeze another small bathroom in here, along the lines of Backdoor Lane 31 -- another idea for "expansion" would be to convert the dining corner on the ground floor into a small nursery (put the dresser elsewhere, and move the dining table to where the dresser was).
1 x double bedroom
2 x bathroom
1 x kitchen/dining
1 x living room
1 x spare room (empty)
All basics included, with a dresser and mirror on top. One driveway in the back yard, car not included.
This is a completely standard mini lot, not shrunk or anything. (Gotta get rid of those old ones before shrunk mini lots become all the rage .. =)
Lot Size: 1x2
Lot Price: 19.958§
Custom Content Included:
- Wooden Stairs Open Underneath by crocobaura

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.
