OMG! You did such a wonderful job on this recreation of the Flavel House. I spent a small portion of my childhood in Astoria, Oregon and still have family there today. I love looking at all the lovely old houses and wishing I could live in them. Now I can, through my sims! Thank you so much for creating this historical landmark, it truly is beautiful with so much character.

This is a beautiful build. I live in Vancouver, Wa., and went to Astoria often as a child. I usually go to Cannon Beach now, but I think I'll have to head to Astoria on my next beach outing to do a drive by of the house. LOL

It is totally worth it!! I am obsessed with Victorian Architecture and I nearly had a heart attack in this home.. it is beautiful! And the last time I went it was only $5 bucks for the tour! So it's definitely worth it. My partner works at SW Wash Medical Ctr in the ER, we were thinking about moving to the Couve.

Cheers!

This is absolutely gorgeous! I have a bit of an infatuation with Victorian anything, but especially the architecture. I love it =)

Graduated high school in Vernonia in the early 70's. Spent much time between Astoria and Canon Beach. Always loved this house and was able to visit it a few times.

Absolutely gorgeous. I was looking for a Victorian with a brighter color scheme for my 6-person Sim family, but I'm going to download this one anyway so I can use it for a different family in the future. I suppose I could edit the colors in build mode, but this house is just too beautiful to touch.

FABULOUS job!

Love the house, but the clutter is painful. Hard to get a good camera view without having something blocking it. And I see you made it really hard to change some things around, lol. I tried adding a basement and it took nearly 2 hours to get the stairs right and everything back in its right place, lol. Apparently you just laid in on "moveobjects on" cheat, lol. Still a good house.
