1920's Vintage Home Design ~ The Calvin 3bed/1bath Colonial, 15th in the Series

The fifteenth house in my "1920s Series" - inspired by 62 Beautiful Vintage Home Designs from the 1920s - is a Colonial of "plain lines but of ample dignity" according to it's brochure. It has six rooms and a bath; and features a closed porch built around the fireplace's chimney.






Please scroll through all the above pictures to see everything this house has to offer. Downstairs rooms include a large living room, dining room, kitchen, porch, and a full basement. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms and a bathroom. Furniture includes a double bed, two nightstands (one with alarm clock,) two closets, an easy chair, and a large dining table. All appliances, plumbing and lighting are included. The telephone is on the wall in the living room. The front door is burglar alarmed. The range and fireplaces have smoke alarms.


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. Pictures were taken with Invisible Fire Alarms in place, but the lot is packaged without that mod. So, you will see the fire alarm over the range in the kitchen and the fireplace in the living room. Pictures were also taken with the Invisible Driveway, but the lot is not packaged with it. I highly recommend both invisifying options! .

This lot is packaged with the only white trimmed roof that comes naturally in the game - the slate grey shingled roof. The pictures show the in-game green slate roof, but with white-trim defaults.

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.


Lot Size: 2x2
Lot Price (furnished): $39,843
