Hello everyone, this is the first of four dorm submissions, one for each of the Houses in Harry Potter's Hogwarts. The idea behind this was to have places to fit all the Hogwarts sims you want instead of using a giant, lagging Hogwarts school lot where students from other houses are constantly getting in your room.

These dorms do not stick strictly to the book. Most notably, each dorm has a dining room and restrooms and such. Many of the dorms have phones, and I think all of the dorms have electrical equipment that is not required, such as tvs. You can remove them if you want.

Note that none of the dorms have too much in the way of landscaping. This is partially due to the tiny lot size, and also partially due to the fact that these dorms are technically inside a building. So I spread a little dirt around the lots to emphasize the fact. None of my dorms have any 'decoration' items (except Ravenclaw's Venus Statue), I left that open for others to play with and to save the file size. All the dorms are otherwise fully furnished.

Gryffindor: I built the tower the highest I could, but it still looks kind of squat. I made an actual roof for it so it would seem taller, but I wanted it to fit in a little with the rest. Some chairs are purely for decoration, but if you want to use them just rotate them a little. I tested a little with my sims, so everything else should work.

Stats:
2x2 lot
Fully furnished
4 livable levels
2 large 'public' bathrooms
6 bedrooms (I was unable to get the stories any higher--I seem to have a game glitch)
A single hacked item, but no game hacks such as the mailbox or anything

WARNING: As always, run this lot through clean pack installer, just to check. You may also remove any custom content I have included there.

I'm having a problem identifying custom content from their names 'as6y7a576569_9987y98.package' so there probably will be some flashing blue objects. No worries though--they all have maxis recolors.

Update: All Lethe_s's meshes have been removed. You must follow the links to download them if you want them to appear in your game. This is due to the nature of BETA meshes--we would both hate to be responsible for your losing data.
