Magpie's Nest
« on: November 24, 2012, 01:26:26 PM »
Introducing Magpie's Nest:


Size: 64 x 64
Price Furnished: 373,497
Price Unfurnished: 205,463
Notes: The stone bridge is decorative. Sims CANNOT walk over it. CFE, MOO and Snapping to slots cheats were used. I've test played on several different lots, with no issues relating to the cheats; however, should something necessary be unusable please let me know. Please see my gallery for the placement of the lot in Appaloosa Plains, as I did place it myself. It was built on a natural slope, so any other placement results in changes in terrain around the edges, and I would then recommend using Soften Terrain to, well, soften the terrain. The house was designed and built for Magpie, her request being for a 3bed house, with nursery, study, games room, tv lounge, kitchen with open plan dining, a basement and a pond. Oh, and some fireplaces for when she got Seasons. She also wanted stone and windows.
The original house that inspired my design is from this website: http://www.architecturaldesigns.com/contemporary-house-plan-23480jd.asp 
My thanks to Jancy whose beautiful bookshelf pattern I definitely used, and to Gheez, whose border pattern of sheep got used in the crazy teen room. Anyone else whose patterns I may have used and forgot to mention, many thanks to you too.






Features: Basement; swimming pool; waterfall and stream with stone bridge; 1st floor: great room, kitchen, dining, nursery with en suite, guest loo, breakfast nook, outdoor lounge, 2 fireplaces. 2nd floor: Master suite with en suite, teen room, guest suite, and loft area. Fireplace in master bed, balcony. 2 car garage.

Listen to the never-haves, then listen close to me;
Anything can happen, child; anything can be.

Wow downloaded 5 times already Rhaps!!! "MY" Nest is gonna be famous! Like I told you I went and added the Ambitions stuff like the sculpting and inventing stations to the basement and some gym equipment (which I forgot to tell you in my specs). And I think with those additions this house is great! THANKS!!!

Hmm maybe you should add what EP's you used for those who don't know?
because... Math *Pippin The Most Tenacious Simmer*

Don't believe all the quotes that have been attributed to me. *Albert Einstein*

I can't ignore ALL of the voices in my head - Some of them actually make sense! *Blayzen*

Yes, please follow the guidelines set out in the Swap Shop rules when listing a lot. It makes it a lot easier for people to see what is needed.
Have you read the Forum Rules?
And please try to remember Capitals, Commas and Apostrophes when you post.
